Even OAPs like them, well most of them at least.

So, a survey was carried out, and we asked hundred people..... sounds a bit like a T.V. game show. Just out of interest, of the thousands of Taxi & P.H. drivers in, (anywhere), has anyone ever taken part in any of these surveys ?. Or, does anybody know someone who has ?. Or someone who knows someone who has ?. Aw' these statisticians eh.... what an easy way to make money.

Aye, anyone might think it was a demand survey for taxis. You can meet public demand by renting a taxi. You just can't meet the same demand by driving your own taxi.

You couldn't make it up. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

You know. You could be forgiven for thinking "demand" has absolutely nothing to do with owning or driving a taxi. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

A new report has revealed Fifers are largely satisfied with the region's taxi service, despite concerns that some cabs are "old and grubby."

Drunken halfwits get in your Taxi, Fri/Sat, 2.30am. "Aw' ye' cannae' git' a' Taxi fir' love nor money in this Toon'", they say. Guess where ?. Canongate ?, Sth Clerk St ?, Brunstfield ?, Haymarket ?Howe St ?. W.T.F. !. When I was younger, (which,to be honest, wisnae' yesterday), and I was heading home on a Sat night, (to my place of residence, just sth east of Duddingston village), the only chance of a Taxi was the bottom of Dalkeith Rd/Cameron Toll !. Nowadays it's a pick-up, Sth Bridge, and it's "Aw' ma' feet", ( a' ken where I'd like tae' put ma' feet, and I do mean plural). The point is, there's plenty of Taxis, disnae' matter to the passenger who's drivintg them, Owner or Driver, there's plenty o' them !.
