Good luck to you mate I hope somebody believes you


Aaaaaah you pick that colour deliberately. Stina was a colourful character too. She also had a lovely flower.

Thanks for making me remember. So thoughtful.

Is this it, your contribution, why bother :roll:

having a driver though means my share per week is just over £50 ,


Is it worth the risk though of him/her running mobile and sending the company under?

Exactly Skull we are our own competition, The Two companies have Edinburgh in a tight grip why would we loosen that grip by becoming one, seriously I thought you'd have worked out a long time ago having 2 is always worth more than having 1, again the cost to me is insignificant, if it was Id be the first to complain :wink:


Well guys, if anyone deserves to lose all of their work to GET TAXI or UBER, you lot do. #-o #-o #-o #-o

Seriously Dougie, if you believe what you write, then you are not a well man. :-| I used to think you were barking before but now it's worrying to think, you are driving people around in your cab. :shock:

His lack of respect for Stina on her memoriam page is a scandal.

A finnish actress?? No she wasn't, she was only just starting to make her mark before tragedy struck.

What are the fundamental differences between City Cabs and CRT from the perspective of the driver picking up customers and transporting them from A-B? Same job or a different job? So who are you competing against when two almost identical cooperatives (shareholders) tender for the same contracts? #-o

I would say the only real difference between the two companies, is the committees serving their own interests by working to keep both companies apart in a bid to line their own pockets. :-|

From the committee perspective, it's about the gravy train first and not the company or its shareholders. #-o

I don't get your inefficiencies point, you may want to be more specific, as far as cost's being twice that of a single company, during the merger talks the cost was not coming in at half what I'm paying just now if the merger had went ahead, also the current costs incurred are not that significant, just a business expense to me, having a driver though means my share per week is just over £50, cheap enough, I'd be willing to pay more if for the right reason.

Simples eh :!:

Flower I reckon you pay no attention to anything, I responded to Skulls question, couldn't care less if you make no sense of my answer, stick to what you know best, I'm not actually sure what that could be :roll:



Reggie darling stick to Dads Army it suits you
