Taxi drivers do have a few perks though eh, taking ladies home from the nightclub at 3am who 'work off' the fair!

It's also a risky job as this asian taxi driver found out by stupidly accepting a fair from pikeys.

"Suspended sentence" Shocked
What do they mean "the other man wasn't caught" Shocked
Is questioning travelers about their psychotic racist mates now considered "racial abuse" itself? They must have bloody known each other Evil or Very Mad
Sorry - this kind of thing sickens me Sad Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

Well, they probably have to earn that extra just to get through but when talking about safety for the passenger, it should always come first. And though I have ridden on those who talk about how they have already been driving for long hours, I have not experienced being on the losing end.

But if you have a lot of time to spare and would not mind waiting another couple of minutes then you can very well get out, really.

Sorry Off Topic


Embarassed ZeD is definitely OT Embarassed


I do not supply things like HD front and rear props.



Reason being I am not a mechanic and do not pretend to be a mechanic. Therefore I can not give any advice about them. I would rather stick to items I can give reasonable advice from a sound knowledge Sorry ZeD Embarassed

IF you want me to try and get a price for a particular item, if you can give me a product code I might be able to get a price. But no advice

Many thanks for the advice (about giving advice) - been a bit weird this evening so will limit the damage and sign off.
Also wanted to check you got the German suppliers info.
So back on topic Embarassed and a goodnight to all Thumbs Up Tell someone you love them today because life is short.

I once got a taxi in Birmingham when me and the mrs at the time had been out on the town. The taxi driver had his hood up and kept moaning he had a cold. He kept jabbering on, and eventually told us that one day "his people" would take over and all the gays would be killed, and women would not be allowed out unless all covered up etc etc proper Abu Hamza job...suffice it to say we didn't direct him to the house we were staying at, just the general area, as didn't want that psycho coming back. 2011 110 USW
