they obviously can't count...the official police count before it set off was 153 cabs and some drivers in private vehicles.

Extracts from a story in yesterday's paper - no prizes for spotting the slight contradiction.

Over 100 Dundee taxi drivers carried out an hour of rolling roadblocks...

...at 4pm headed on to the Hawkhill, driving the circular routed at a snail's pace around Marketgait for an hour.

A Tayside Police spokeswoman said: "...around 100 taxis proceeded to drive round in a circuit at normal speeds for around ten minutes before disbanding. There were no roadblocks and no disruption to other road users."

:roll:
