You may well have a life of walking dogs, reading books and drinking coffee but you still feel the need to revisit past failures.


I'm not following you. :-k

If I revisit anything through this forum it is my escape from a life that I came to detest. Let me explain. I am not talking about the job itself but the people and not any individual, not even you Les but in general. Your average taxi driver is as thick as mince and for the most part, totally unaware of his life as Cab*igger. I would describe the large majority who enter the trade as mindless units of production. There to be used and abused and this is where you come in, you recognise this too and so do the other parasites that feed of them for a living. As I said before when paraphrasing the late great Jimmy Reid - A rat race is for rats. I am not rat. I am a human being. And this is where you and I clash, you want me to be just like them, another Cab*igger and taken in by your BS. :-|

As for revisiting past failures, if that's what I am doing then there's only one. And that is not having the power to convince people they deserve better than allowing themselves to be treated as Cab*iggers. eusasmiles.zip So I like to stir the pot a bit on this forum for my own amusement. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Oh and they think this Cab*igger phrase is a joke. It's not. They have no dignity because it has been stripped away by the committees, the Cab Inspector, the Council and the public. In short, these idiots and you, expected me to accept what they do.


Not on your life!!

It was a 10lber Artur. It took the great Stina a while to land it but she prevailed in the end. It tasted wonderful grilled on the BBQ with the Mint Mash. Great memories. I remember the Poker night at The Plaza New York City in 87. Olaf was a bandit, played his cards close to his chest, Stina couldn't but that wasn't her fault. I'll never forget Stinas face when the legendary John Holmes looked at her and told her "I'm going All In". She nearly fainted. John did go all in with two pair, Kings and 8's, Stina had a full house.
I bet she could read a few of these "Jokers" on this site.
Give my love to the Mrs A&M. She's a true gentleman.



You remember that angler saying to Stina she was now in the 10+ club, she just winced as John nodded in agreement.

There seems to be Jokers to the left and right Kaiser and at times it feels like I'm stuck in the middle with you.

Les my friend if you treated people the way you would like to treated things would be different , you yourself are the one who has caused more distress to members and drivers than anyone else with your attitude , your response if you don't like it leave , then you come out with are you talking to me as a member or committee man , if it's the latter I'm working so what exactly are you being paid for as other committee men do not behave in this manner .

The only person that's ever had the reason to be distressed is Stina. Take this quote from adult film star Richard Pacheco in the documentary Wadd: The Life and Times of John C. Holmes.

"When an actress did her first scene with John Holmes, this was the time when she discovered if bigger was better or not. There was no other test."

I'd think myself lucky TRTD.

Ooooooh very clever, straight from Thatcher's book Divide and Conquer... #-o
