its dead guys, dead, how can anyone be making any money at this time of the year?? it was the two's and the threes over the last few weeks, today was DEAD, wished they could survey now, would show no SUD!!!!!

we would be safe for at least another 3 years, before the OFT and thier Fraternity would be screaming, more plates, more plates......... or not because the licensing authorities would have fallen into line and we would be losing out, no doubt.

have you ever been to Swindon? this will be an interesting one to watch.

High Wycombe for example has stopped issuing more plates because it has realised thier is no where to park them, which must mean business is booming for these folk.

The OFT and the Fraternity want immediate dereg aka privatisation, these people want us to make less money thats all.

If you can't make the game pay do what Steve Norris advocated and find another job. Your fate is in your own hands mate.

I had a super week last week.
I was at my 'villa on the coast'.
Yesterday and today I did very well thank you.
The trouble is you 'Buttaboys' don't know how to 'work' the job. :lol:

Not Sussex?

I was reading the 'badge' last week, your cab looks very familiar (front cover)

Anything you want to tell us Mac? :wink:

I have nothing to hide. It was not my cab. Surly all metros look the same. Mine got passed first time.
Once upon a time some many years ago I was Sub Editor of the badge. When the arguments and back stabbing started between LCDC and the other organisations, I decided it was time to move on as I had already been there and got the 'T' shirt.
