I'm asking a question because I wish to know how much Mr Griffen charges?

Is that OK?

It's perfect, but if you want to know how much, why not answer the advert? :-k


And why not ask Master Podge? :-s

Why don't you come on board, we don't mind. :D

Or you could join one of the PH firms run by your mates the two Geoffs.

But don't mention the PH firm Comcab have. :-$



So whilst on the subject Ollie, tell us why Mr Griffen seems to have an ongoing recruitment issue?

It would appear many of his staff are studying on the Knowledge, using his company as a bridge.

Pray tell Mr Merc. :?

The reason he needs more drivers is because he has taken a fair bit of work from the black cab circuits, and not everyone wants to pay £60+ to go to the airport from the City.

As for the lads doing the KOL, good luck to them. I suspect there are many thousands of ex mini-cab drivers driving black cabs.

Me I more than happy with my lot. No riff-raff in the Ollie mobile. :roll:

Well the illuminations clearly didn't work, half the sign's fallen down. :lol:

(Bit like the owner outside the Dover wine bar)

Still they've gone one better, they are now spending thousands on a London wide radio advertising campaign, pleading for drivers to come and work for them.

Shame they forget to mention the 6 days, 12 hour shifts they want you to work for about £900 a week. :-$

They must loose more drivers than Mac's metro looses oil. :wink:

GBC I'll bash you if you start on me and my Metro. I have not put in any oil for weeks. I am beginning to wonder what that light is that keeps flashing. the one with a picture of an oil can. :-o
1,000 miles, half a litre.
If ever you see a red Metro with gold wheels flash past you. Thas me. :twisted:
