I don't need to tell you the big fat mistake you made, which I doubt you will do again.

But well done for keeping some sort of control over the situation before the police arrived, and great that you didn't end up in a far worse condition.

But put it behind you as otherwise it will drive you mad. :wink:

I'm surprised you didn't realise you had more than 4 passengers on board before you set off?

Pull over and explain that will have to get a larger vehicle; atempting to stay friendly as you do. Guy in front smaks me one in the face and keeps hold of me - hit panic button and all hell breaks loose! Woman behind me grabs my hair and pulls me back in my seat) Theses pax were not my average pax but of the travelling variety! Eventual result - I get rid of pax (courtesy of the many boys in blue; and what a fantastic job they do - 13 to fist blue light under a minute although it felt like hours; and every cab regardless of office responded) and carry on back to the ranks and keep working......BUT go home, sleep, think and I have to admit that I awoke at 3 am for the start of my shift and - I CAN'T DO IT!

How do I get over this fear? Where's Tigger when you actually need her?
This is not some dumb blonde fantasy; it's real and I want to know how I'm gonna drive nother night shift!


Here we go again. Que the disabled child who is 4 one day, and 32 with his own family the next, que the Saloon which will be a TX by next week............The sad middle aged man is back with in his fantasy world.........Yaawwn. =;

Sorry gus, need to agree with GBC here, yet another yarn from Tiggers shadow :sad: Do you really believe you can drive with four bodies in the boot/hatch/estate without noticing why the front was pointing at the moon?

Clearly with all the rain that we have had lately, it would have been impossible to see the moon. :lol:

WTF???? GBC are you some kind of sicko? There was me a lone guy out in the sticks and driving a bloody Vauxhall Vectra Estate so just where did the TX appear? I just wish I'd been in one - 6 [edited by admin] guys against ya and you've got your head held back by your hair, a broken bottle at your throat and you dare to ask!

I [edited by admin] wish I had been driving a TX then maybe I wouldn't have the injuries that I suffered! Your some sad [edited by admin] [edited by admin] arent't you/ I bet you've never actually been behind the wheel of a cab - your just one of these saddo's that dreams the dream. Well wakey wakey the dream is actually the night mare that every cabbie has to live with 24/7.

GBC you have finally got your wish - I for one never wish to get behind the wheel of a cab again. You saw Tigger off and now there is one Leeds Taxi firm up for sale!

Just where do you drive - if at all you do? All you seem to do is stir up [edited by admin] for others that have to face the consequences of your actions. Has anyone actually seen GBC's licence just to prove its a freaking DUD? This [edited by admin] has obviously led a privalidged life and never had to see the kind of Street Work that we all have to face.

FYI the pax have been charged with a string of offences but do I give a [edited by admin]? NO! The trade has got that bad that we can't even support each other when onen of is attacked - [edited by admin] THE WHOLE LOT OF YOU! I really don't need this kind of [edited by admin] [edited by admin]. All I know is I was in danger and you lot try and pin this on someone who is in [edited by admin] Thialand and has been for [edited by admin] months. You are sad, so very very sad.

Oh dear GBC you seem to have scared off yet another, i bet thats made your day :) I think skippy has a point though, why oh why cant the very people that are in the trade stick together instead of fighting against each other, if you cant stick by each other what chance do you stand against the authorities?? Yes i accept its the same in the limo world too. too many ar**holes willing to try and bring the others down and start a war of words, but in fact if they stood by one another they would actually acheive so much more!!!!The only difference is though i dont get scared off :D Happy days ahead i guess :lol: However even i accept that there does seem to be certain inconsistencies with your version of events, perhaps thats down to not being able to recall the actuall events due to fear, i guess we will never know!!!

Wow, I've shut down a business, all on my own! :D

I'm sure the regular readers of TDO will see the similarities of the cross dresser tiggers last post and the cross dresser skippys last post.

Another sad individual who lives in a fantasy world gone from the forum. Give it a couple of weeks and it will be back with another new identity and more bullsheeite.
