On many trips to Europe I have never heard of, or seen any PH, If they dont allow them why do we have to have them here. It would be best if the Government decided that taxis and only taxis could operate Lighting blue touch paper and standing back here's Sussex

When I was last in Spain the 'taxis' booked by the hotel for me were not taxis. Quite what they were is another thing. But the cars were smart, as were the drivers, and they were cheaper. Which means they must have been PH.

How would Burglars in London get about? Somebody told me a few months ago that a PH operator in peterborough has taken on quite a few Albanian drivers and in between jobs they sit in the office bragging about how many people they murdered back in albania

France has 'ambulance' cars in towns outside the big cities. They are run by private ambulance companies and locals can ring them. The hacks all seem to belong to circuits. |
