Welcome Towag! Have fun and don't take it too seriously especially posts from Skippy :lol: :lol: :lol:


Having developed a skin like a rhino after many hundreds of abusive punters, asshole licensing officers and councillors to thicken it, you would probably have to stick a red 'ot poker up my rear orifice to get me going.... well you might get a response if you twisted it around a bit.... :wink: :shock:

The same as every else I should imagine, I suppose we average about one fare an hour at present with maybe two on a good day, a good day being something of a rarity these days......
We are suffering the same problems as most areas are at present, that being, supply by far outstrips demand!
All caused by delimitation and the mad equality act, bearing in mind that equality is only for those that can afford it......
Yes and some are just more equal than others are they not? :roll: eusasmiles.zip
We have had this problem years before the recession hit and it's just compounded it even more so......
I would say more, but I might be seen as a racist, and that is very far from the truth..... suffice to say that how ironic this has become, because the invasion we have had over the last 10 years or so has now backfired on those that rushed here to get a license. It's so laughable as they are all saying there are too many of us here and we need to cap license issue!!
Who the hell are all these Eurasians and Slavs think they are coming here and taking away our work and livelyhoods!!!???
So, so ironic...... :-|

It is very nice to meet you.... 23 years in the trade.... I suppose you've been married more than once as well....


No only once and still married, can't afford a harem.....

No, she who must be obeyed, just realises that she would not have the life of luxury she now enjoys, if I don't work silly hours..... :wink:

Towag


Welcome, but why would you want to make constructive comment? No one else does! :mrgreen:


Speak for yourself Grandad I make some constructive comment :lol: :lol: Welcome aboard Towag :D


Thanks Toots,
I will comment on how I will feel most likely, after all being human is quite hard sometimes, well most of the time, being in this trade!!
Better than stacking shelves in Sainbury's I suppose? No hang on a minute, they ARE earning more than me..... bloody 'ell must get down there quick and see if they have any vacancies......
