Part of my bus driving expeditions have been to Manchester. Just finished a week there, travelled back to the south yesterday. I got a call from a firm near Maidstone who wanted a bus collecting fro Yaxley, just outside Peterborough. I managed to re-schedule my train ticket to go via Peterborough to collect his bus. But I needed to get a taxi from there to Yaxley, about 5 miles away.
Outside the station at the taxi rank a nice line-up of WAV Mercedes, I got in a cab driven by a chatty Asian driver. The cab was clean and tidy, the chap's driving was very good, a very pleasant ride, Top marks to that man. Contrary to a lot of views on Asian drivers...Well done Peterborough Taxi driver. BTW the meter fare was about £11.80. He got a tip.
