For those working have a good night and may your punters hold the contents of their stomachs in and tip well !

for the rest of you may the year bring better fortunes than the last

Not done a second of work today, and will do even less tonight. Mrs Sussex is off to the warm place tomorrow.

That said there are 364 others days to which I can, and do, earn my corn. :D

But for those working, fill your boots.

Happy new year to you all.
I always find New years Eve to be a very disappointing night. You have 2 busy spells at the start and end and nothing in-between. I don't do street work anymore and I suppose that some of our drivers who stay out after the main rush do make a few quid but I was home just after 2.00.

I had nothing up to midnight and 3 good jobs after.it seems the norm to book a cab only after midnight not before.dont do city centre anymore unless dropping there,even then it's only fleeting as the amount of cabs and lack of work is soul destroying .
