Don't take it personally, bloodnock.
The English plundered the world for centuries and think it is still theirs by right. :lol: They have always lived of the wealth of other nations :wink:
They don't like having to give some of it back either :lol:

24th dec, 1800-2400= fare and a half.
25 dec, 00.00-00.00=double time.
same new year.
I'm not working over the festive period, it's dead in london.

I started a rumour in my office that if your a muslim driver you can only charge normal time as it's a christian holiday, caused murders! :D

you only won on the day because the Duke of Cumberland (inventor of the Ring sausage) had the Referee in his payroll....Final score was 17-46 but wi king George the Second (a German) taking a Dive just like the Prima Donna he was (and which is still a trait in English football) you won on penalties...nothing new there then.. :roll:
