Cat A entitlement on my licence

[yambabe]

I had my driving licence out tonight to have a look at my entitlements as I need to tow a trailer tomorrow and I know that because of when I passed my car test there are some weight restrictions I have to stick to.

Whilst looking at it, I realised that although I passed my bike test in 2004 (only 7 weeks to go til my 33bhp is up!) and I have Cat A <25kW on the photocard I also have Cat A shown as a provisional entitlement on my paper bit. Does anyone else have this? Does anyone know why I would have it as both?

I wondered if it's because until 2 years after my test I could (in theory) still do DAS cos I'm over 21? But if that's the case how come it doesn't expire in 2006 when my 33bhp is up but is valid until 2034 (my 70th birthday) like all my other categories?
