They don't pay enough to work over Xmas. So I don't.

thats why i thought of £3.00 for first mile on xmas...I ONLY HAVE MYSELF TO PAY and my car, so if i can generate more fares by cutting them, so be it...
i would rather be busy with a lot of £3.00 fares than doing 100 £3.50 fares all dam day.. :roll:
and besides...i,m starting a NEW COMPANY and if i can generate enough intrest over xmas with my £3.00 fares & slightly more upmarket vehicle, this should stand me in good for jan / feb 2006....




Christ, i wish i could do "100 £3.50 farse all day"

To do £350 in 1 shift i have to do a 16hr shift on a friday or saturday night!! even then i'm lucky to do that!
I go for £100 a day wekdays (8-9hrs) and once i've done £250 on weekend nights (12-14 hrs)i'm off home! but it's difficult doin that every week.
