I bet my very expensive motor to GBC's thing that the cab trade in London will continue to be restricted.

To middle aged bald headed fatties. :lol: :lol:

You forgot to add the extra fat money bag as well. :wink:

nah Jimbo, Sussex will find a partner and buy a VW Transporter and share half the costs.


That'll end in tears. where will he find a "partner" he can trust? Or a partner that will trust him? The last odd couple we had here, about 15 years ago, ended up in court for fighting on the rank...

Later, I'll give you my ten reasons it will go tits up... :lol: :wink:


In no particular order...

1) Suspicion.. Is he ripping me off?

2) Partner goes long term sick

3) You go long term sick

4) Is he pulling his weight?

5) He wants to give it all up/ you want to give it all up...

6) He thinks you should pay half his speeding ticket

7) The council suspend his badge

8) The council revoke his badge

9) The VAT man cometh...

10) A regular complains your mate felt them up

11) He dissappears with the cab and the weeks takings on the way to the bank.

Still, I'm sure you can trust your "mate", Sussex?

So my odds, if anyone wishes to place a bet on the number of restricting councils left by the end of the year, is as follows;

110+ 100/1

105-109 33/1

100-104 20/1

95-99 7/1

90-94 2/1

85-89 Evens

80-84 2/1

75-79 7/1

70-74 20/1

60-69 33/1

0-59 100/1

I placed these odds on the site in March, and it looks as if the 95-99 7/1 will be the winner by the end of the year. Thankfully no one took those odds. :D

I wonder what the favourite should be by the end of next year? My money's on 70-74. :wink:



What are the odds that the survey in your own little manor will say no SUD? I'll have a score on it. :lol: :wink:
