No way to work last night and looks like the same tonight.

A mate of mine text me last night (he lives in Cardiff) I live 10 miles north, to say plenty of flag down work...............but not many taxis out.

He would have been restricted to Cardiff only, as there was no way he could have done any out of towners.

London was non stop last night.

Mind you it would be, it was the last Friday before Xmas.

That's me until next week, if the weather doesn't improve, that's me until it does.
I think the shopping days inbetween Xmas and New year this year will be good.

Today, Brent Cross, North Londons massive shopping centre has closed on the busiest day of the year.
That's serious! :shock:

Couldn't get into my manor this morning as the coast road was blocked.

Still at least I can spend some quality time with the family. :sad:

Its the last Friday before Christmas for the nightime London Taxi trade.

Few people go out in London on Christmas Eve.

Perhaps Limo passengers differ?
