Just found this readers letter, why on earth are they complaining to the press and its readers, they got picked up off a GNER rank, the complaint should be to the Rail Company

The fare would be about 3 quid, or just under, unable to heavy brake or go like the clappers or even swerve as its heavy traffic all the way, nose to tail.

I think you will find the link relates to each seperate edition, and now the link to the story will be a different one. :-$

Oh right. It's like getting a job from the Westminster Abbey rank, (that I use quite a lot) to Buckingham palace which happens quite a lot. So It is no big deal. I and others do it with a smile, and hide our inner thoughts.

I wonder what is the shortest job anyone has ever done?

Mine. Finchley road. They get in and ask for a studio in the Finchley road. I said that it is here very near by. They said they can't find it.
As I did a U turn, I spotted it on the other side of the road.
