Hmm...I think I'll have to start charging pubs, clubs, guest houses, rail stations etc when I dump a punter on them :lol:

No brothels in my manor though, so that scenario won't be repeated with me :oops:

I think that people who seek out these stories tend to get them from the same sources, so that people on different forums finding the same stories isn't at all surprising.

I've mentioned it before on here, but we used to have a regular address where we picked the girls up from (taxi/PH work, not the other), and they suggested to us that they would give a few quid everytime we dropped a bloke at that address. :shock:

One even suggested that if we took plenty of punters around, then we would be up for a freebie !!!!!! :-$

Its common practise in London for the table dancing clubs to pay you commission.

Licensed Taxi drivers dropping off at the 'Kabaret Club' in New Bond street get up to £30 a head (!) for a recomendation, needless to say, 5 arab's in August and i'm in for an early night. :lol:

Some many years ago when on the rare occasion that I worked nights. I picked up this guy who had had a few jars, but not falling over peed. 'I want a woman' he says. (don't we all). Wanting to get rid of him sorta quick. I took him to the place in Curzon St that was popular with us cab driver as we got a drink from them.
We went to the door and rung the bell. The door was opened by 'the maid'. A very old 'passed sell by date' dear. My punter took one look at her and said. 'I might have had a few but I am not that hard up, I don't want her'

years and years ago in my good old ph days i picked up some sunderland fans who had just beaten my beloved Cgulls. :sad:
they were very much happy bunnies and enjoyed taking the [edited by admin] out of me.
anyway they wanted a good nightclub to go to.
so did i take them to a good night club with plenty of girls in, or a nightclub with 100% men in? :lol: :lol:
