At least you know Flanaguff wrote it himself, its just a copy of his usual embittered posts on here, or is it on this 'WWW.Taxi-cab' website he mentions? :?

I would suspect if anyone who has read this publication in the past and has been dithering on the question on whether to join the GMB or not, has now firmly placed their application form in the recycling bin. :D

'Professional' branch rep, or a bitter sacked printer who thinks its 1978 ? :lol:







He's quite correct though when he talks about 'cretins' on the TDO forum, although he seems to have made a small mistake by making it plural. :wink:

Well why don't you write a piece for Press Cuttings Monthly saying how bad Terry is? :?

Thing is, is that when the likes of you read his articles, he has won. :shock:

If he wasn't having an effect, then you lot would blank him. :wink:

I'll place it on the page behind your one then? A gardening column?

No one in London has ever heard of this paper, I only catch it because Alex and TM are so closely associated with its publication, if Terry wished to attack the real London Taxi trade he would be more than welcome to scribe a letter to the many Taxi newspapers that serve the capital.

But he chooses to base his diatribes in a paper that 99% of London taxi drivers have never heard of?

I wonder why? :wink:

Err? 'Won' what? :-s

He can't even convince the PCO to allow drivers shields, and no one has any objections about these. :D

Maybe it's because the cab trade in London only like reading the spin from LTI, LTDA and the T&G.

Seldom, if ever, do they get to read the alternate view. :wink:

Aye he'll do that all right, shame no one in London reads it! :D

The only thing that will pizz me off Sussex is if my takings go down, and I'm pleased to announce, again, they're up about 14% this month. :wink:

Liar. :^o

No one in the London Taxi trade has ever heard of an insignificant like yourself, never mind reading the bigoted poison that you type.
Keep up the act Terry, slowly but surely your defences are wearing down. :wink:

But not as embarrassing (note the second s) as the 'professional' bigot who thinks he's the leader of the London Minicab trade, all 72 years and 9 stone of him. :D

Still I live in comfort to know that you'll be dead and buried sooner than later Terry, and that will be your best contribution to society yet. \:D/

I don't fight old men even if they are the worlds biggest bigot.

Given Terrys physique, if you blew hard enough he'd go down. :D

Terry makes you look like a teenager Mac!

For the first time several days ago I was passed taxi trade by another driver, I've never read it before, the only 1 I've ever seen down here is taxi news ( I think)

How surprised I was to stumble upon an article where some of the fine users here being were abused. :lol:

It felt like having this forum in my cab with me. :D
