I am?

Oh well never mind, I'll try not to loose any sleep over it. :wink:

Runnings good. Get a set of decent shoes though, Runners Needs at the bottom of Parkway NW1 will kit you out for about £90 with a decent set.

You'll see the diffence by Christmas. Image

Well he does have a point, obviously not 23'000, but I reckon there must be a couple of thousand who go out touting of a weekend. The Police have a mear 50 officers who concentrate on the crime, not enough in my opinion, but they're stretched as it is with gun crime, never mind Minicab touts.

More so at this time of year as it's getting busy on nights at the mo.

My point isn't that there aren't any illegally plying PH, and if you say two thousand that I have to agree with you.

However that does leave 21,000 licensed London PH who are legally earning a living, and clearing all the word lost by the black cab trade. :wink:

You mean like your 46 in 4 days!

If you're on here a slong as I've been, you'll be on track for around 43000 after 5 years! :D

The occasional sensible contribution, minus the abuse, is always welcome.

Well do folks really have to point out the bleeding obvious to you? :?

If a cab driver (you) is asking another cab driver (registered over three years) if cab drivers are welcome on here isn't the most stupid of questions, then one has to wonder what is? :?
