Thats a full days takings it takes me 12 hours some days to take that much at that rate you'd only need to do 2 jobs a day and you'll be a millionnaire in no time


But you probably don't have to endure £42k Taxis, and the most expensive living / housing costs in the UK !

Let me assure you despite some of my jokes, we're comfortable, but certainly not rich!

People don't look at that do they GBC? They think it's all money in the pocket but they don't take into account the £40K purchase of a cab and the associated running costs.

I thought you lived out near Bedford miles away from the smoke and by the way I drive a full hackney spec vehicle which cost me £27K and now costs about £10K a year in garage bills !!!!!!

FINLAND ! Never hear of anything happening there, no mass murders, earthquakes, political scandals, greedy bankers, alcohol problems, social issues etc. You never see 'something serious has happened in Finland' on the news.
Bet it's dead boring to live there :)
