speaking to someone in a care/rest home and they mentioned i was a PH driver to the owner, he said another resident had asked a taxi (said taxi, coulda been PH) firm for a quote for christmas day to visit relatives 6 miles away and was quoted ..........£200

i want a bit more for the christsmas/new years days and bank holidays but i think thats fair, most PAYE employees are on trebled time or more

Midnight Christmas Eve to 0600 Boxing Day - Meter x 2

There are a few extra hours of meter + half after 1800 Christmas Eve, throughout Boxing Day and sometime around New Year, I believe.
