How much they value the taxi driver? South Africa R5,000. Ireland £1,000 worth of fuel still a good prize. Uk a years licencing fee free £133.00. Oh well I suppose it's the thought that counts :-s

R5000 is about £320 GBP....that'd buy a several years worth of Yams...or a Wing mirror for a Morris Oxford..

Still more than than £133.00. This guy is obviously really helpful and isn't bothered by the prize and doesn't do it for the money he's just a nice guy but sometimes I wonder what motivates a company etc to offer such low rewards for such high service
