I will let you into a little secret, it doesn't matter a fig what I pay my office. :shock:

What does matter is how much work they give me. :wink:

Sussex is right. I think at times I am working just to keep the Repair garages going.

If I'm earning good money then I don't care whose pockets I line.

If I don't like the firm I'm working with, then I go on one that I do like.

Maybe you would rather have a tout lining no-ones pocket, than a legit PH lining an operator's pocket?

That aside, surely many thousands of London cabbies are lining the pockets of operators, albeit taxi ones.

And out of the three main firms, two of them are owned by foreigners.

What's that you say about taxeeee taxeeee? :shock:

Even if it was a greedy plate holder? and you were both earning good money?

Providing it was in a quota free district, then why not? :wink:

You see Ollie I don't stop on nights, and I don't have to line someones pockets into the bargain. You do. Honk Honk.

Whats a tout got to do with Ollies constant waffle about how much better of he is driving a minicab than a London Taxi? If it was that good we would'nt have hundreds of minicab drivers doing the knowledge to get away from that side of the trade to ours. Funnily enough in 20 years i've never met anyone doing the opposite, strange that? Taxee? I guess i'm dyslessic?
