can anyone recall the cabbie who dropped off at a train station or airport somewhere here (london way i think) and the passenger had left a bag with £70,000 in it on the back seat, the cab was found abandoned later....?

Are you sure it wasn't in the region of £420,000?

That was about 15 years ago & the £70,000 was only about five to seven years ago.
