£2 on normal fare ?? surely that's illegal? after all you pay what's on the meter surely, if the fare came to £7 on the meter & you ask for £9 , might be a problem :lol:

Double most of the night.

What a whole £2.00 a hire :shock:

madness aint it, loads will work though

well was out nyd, one particular fare was, nasty/mellow/great :lol: ,

NASTY : picked a bloke & lass up & he immediately started banging on how we hold the public to ransom over the xmas period with our rates , it is "fooking disgusting & dont know how you sleep at night , & shouldn't be allowed to do it"

MELLOW : dropped his lass off first, then he mellowed out & apologised as he said he was pi$$ed ( obviously drunken bravado in front of his lass :roll: )

GREAT : fare came to £17 ish, stood his ground & said, "sorry mate, no tip, like i said , shouldn't be allowed to up the rates just because its xmas, handed me a £20 note, i gave him his change, he staggered off , i went to put the £20 in my bag, there were 2 stuck together :lol: :lol: :lol: RESULT!! & poetic justice at its best :lol: :lol:
