Well, I went to the Isle of Wight steam show and beer festival...58 real ales to try...
Didn't manage all of them though!
Ryde Taxis, very prompt and polite service, well done to them.

I shall be having harsh words with the "service" (cough) about not attending a vehicle in an undriveable state, on a motorway, with a 3 year old child passenger and unrepairable at a local garage in fact i smell compensation wafting in..... |

his car is "BER" but was taxed/tested/insured and he drove it 140 miles home (beyond economical repair) It cost him £3K in November i told him NOT to let the repair/estimate/garage collect it for estimates, it didnt need to go anywhere for that i took the wife to thedentists, when we got home he had told em to fetch it NOW it seems, with a £400 excess and a elepant wanting all his outstanding insurance (paying monthly) settled (£600) he may end up with nothing (or owing them!) whereas id got interest on ebay for it at a grand, no more advice from dad now, hes on his own so much for having fully comp insurance |

Fetched a family back from Skeggy easy enough start Then !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sat in heavy traffic jams trying to get people into the burghley horse trials ! I really do hate Burghley week ! Then went out to a farm in the middle of Nowhere to pick up 8 passengers coming into town because it's Burghley first off they put it back 45 minutes because they got stuck getting out of Burghley  and after turning down 2 more 8 seater jobs turned up to find there were only 4 passengers will be interesting to see what happens with the 22.30 job they've rung up and changed it 7 times so far now apparently 14 passengers (8 + 6 ) whats the betting two vehicles will turn up to find just 8 passengers ! |
