Apparently ecph have applied for a 2nd desk at the terminal which will include escort marshalls.
How do city drivers feel about this?
You may be sitting watching punters going to St Andrews etc being escorted into the saloons beside you!

why is there always a fixation with missing country jobs???? If I never get a country job of the street or out of the airport ever again I will not be bothered. I am an Edinburgh taxi driver and actually enjoy driving the streets of Edinburgh :mrgreen:
If I get a £20 to £25 fare into town everytime I am more than happy thanks :D

Escorted to PH. And you're bound for Edinburgh Park.

Seems to me like ECPH are playing all the cards here :badgrin:

Is there a smiley for larfing my cork off? :badgrin:

Chrismas.....never advisable to start of a claim apparently. Personally I think you're apparently sheet stirring.

How many country jobs do you get out the airport?

Jasbar if you guys are not bothered by missing out on the rubbish airport work why do you go on and on about the airport?? Surely missing out on the tender should make you happy??

I being genuinely serious here, what the f happens to taxi drivers once they join central?? Is there a brainwashing ceremony you have to go through??

Good evening Mr Artur, always a pleasure to have your views. You have however on this occasion missed an important fact. One has to have a brain to begin with to be brainwashed.

Yeah, I'm delighted. The PH are going to expand their fleet to cover the airport, and all the displaced hacks are going to be picking up in front of me in the City.

You get it?
