This should do for 'extras' especially when the students are pi$$ed cos some behave like animals :wink:

My arguement has always been 'if you can afford to go out on the beer you can afford to pay the taxi fare home' simples

Many a time I have had for example a prospective £10 fare whereby it is "I've only got a fiver drive can you do it for that cos that is all I have" You then get the please please I have got to get home bit.............I always reply, "Well you would be on your way home now if you had not drank your taxi fare".

round here theres that many taxis chasing the few fares that are about that the customers can tell you what they are going to pay and if you don't accept theres plenty who will

Newport were at one time amongst the lowest fares in the U.K (I am not sure where they are now) this has caused their fleets to be quite old, and then you get this from our budding geniuses/freebie hunters. http://www.southwalesargus.co.uk/news/8 ... ke/?ref=mr

Sadly I generally find them a pain in the ass..... Period
