I've had quite a few folks from Aberdeen in the taxi this weekend and the main comments seem to be how much cheaper taxis are in Edinburgh compared to Aberdeen. Some claiming the dandy dons are double bubble expensive.

Is this true guzzie???

And the other main comment was how well presented, polite and BO free edinburgh cabbies are.

It's time to ditch that shellsuit guzzie.....fit like ken!

We hear the same thing here about you lot in Edinburgh.
Common question, "How come your fares are so cheap, we'd only get half that distance in Edinburgh" :shock:

Mmmm, rowies. 20 seconds in the microwave and a big dollop of butter on the top.

Got relatives in Aberdeen, always come back from a visit with a couple of carrier bags of rowies and a box of smokies from the docks. 8)

Talking of smokies......the Artur could bring something from his homeland to help you munch your way through those bags of rowies
