I know it's on the forum somewhere else, but let's run a book on the latest story. :wink:

I think the issue is if there is enough work out there to keep those pinkies going.

I think I can count on one hand the amount of times our firm has been asked for a lady driver this year. But to keep a fleet going in such a small niche market, is going to be very hard.

But hey, don't they always know best. :roll:
