16 more and i go Bankrupt :roll: :roll:

The number is insignificant to me as an individual MR AliT :roll: :roll:

20 plates as far as monetry value is significant to my vision of modernising the trade to provide a higher level of customer/driver safety :shock: We will just have to hike up fee's and us individuals will have to take the increase on the chin, thanks Carpetbaggers, not all will be traded but a good few will.

Our trade needs money and the council need to find money for the policing of CCTV, we need Mobile cab inspectors patrolling the ranks, you know stopping seagulling, helping drivers during disputes etc, all leading to an expansion of the cab office including larger premises.

Non of this will come about if we keep dishing out licences on appeal, hopefuly this will be the last for a long time, the council though should increase fees for corporate companies/multi plate holders etc, us individuals and co-operative radio companies prop up too much towards the running of our trade, time to ask for a difference to be shown between corporate and individual.

As for crying about 20 licences i think not, you are more likley to be crying as you never got one of them, the council are on to you and you know it, good luck to the genuine guy's who plan to use their licence but to the carpetbaggers well enjoy it while you have it, a fool and his money are easily parted :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:

surely you don't mean mr Davidson :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
this is your source surely no Dougie surely no #-o
could i give you specifics ...probably! if i had the inclination...i don't.

truth is they are all granted...what there plate numbers are is irrelevant, to most at least :oops:
i did say that you wouldn't believe it even when they are sitting next to you on the rank :roll:
