Lady asked me to take her to an address today about a mile away, which I agreed to do. She moaned about the "disgusting" (£3) flagfall. She moaned about the red traffic lights. She moaned about the railway crossing gates closing. She moaned about the meter ticking over whilst stationary. She moaned about the £5:20 fare. And then........................... .................She asked to come back for her at 1345  couldn't make it up.Told her I was busy........ |

I like the ones who ask how much the fares are.....I look at them and say....you probably can't afford it. CC |

I must add before Sussex has a go at me, I am PH, so only used to do that when I had my HC, which, so that someone can have a go at me as well as Sussex, I sold in 1989! |

And another thing, for the benefit of others, if you sell your plate in Brighton you cannot be on the waiting list for another! |
