Taxi Driver Online

This is 'Breaking news' on the Wiltshire Times website.

Maybe a slow news day in Wiltshire

So I wonder why they're highlighting this particular incident in this way. Maybe it's because it's a good photo

Police have appealed for information after a taxi passenger allegedly left without paying.

Wiltshire Police said the incident happened on July 31 when an unknown man took a taxi from Melksham to Trowbridge.

The force said the passenger left the taxi when he arrived and ran away without making any attempt to pay the fare.

Police have now released an image of a man they want to speak to in connection with the incident.

Anyone who recognises him is asked to contact PC Peacock by email at 2777@wiltshire.police.uk

Information should be provided quoting crime reference 54260092726.

Had to look a bit to find the original source of this one - it's on the Trowbride Police Facebook page

And which in turn reminds me of what always springs to mind when I hear Trowbridge mentioned - ex-Stranglers frontman Hugh Cornwell's song which I think alludes to the slow pace of life in Trowbridge

Catchy lo-fi tune, though

And who I think was the last live act I saw - but in Dunfermline earlier this year, and not in Trowbridge

The last live act I saw was Spandau Ballet in the early 80s.
