other person still doing it is chic ingram(lessons in altens somewhere) will find out for you!! They have stopped the we will pay it for you. The total cost if the course is £250 with Comm Cab (Les, Graeme & George). You will be £160 with Chic and you can pay both them up each week, I know Chic wants £10 per week. You have to remember & add £45 for you test. This is for Whizz - My motor gets fitted with the radio & meter tomorrow, I decided to go with Com Cab. I have got my car inspection on Thursday, so hopefully it will pass & be up and running for Friday. The car is getting valeted on Wednesday ready for the inspection. |

i cant do every week due to shifts.i can do every alternative week one week im a chauffeur second im a mail room officer/security/receptionist. 17yrs of this and its doing my head in the driving i like the rest i dont.when im not driving my suoerviser does and hes a total plug. take boss to elphinstone hall for 11am..supervisor took him to elphinstone court tillydrone(the bronx)he passed the hall on the way there and was 25mins late. but my bosses dont want him in the mail room as he screws every thing up in there.and its a big waste of money if its done wrong. so to me get licence get out of it in time.totally fedup. some may say im on a winner but check your local council for whats called Single Status..expect a mass exodus of highly trained finance and architechs and others to the public sector. janitors in aberdeen arnt using there cars to goto banks or for callouts as they cut there mileage by a shed load they walk there even in an emergency. in other word if you have 4 miles to goto a school your paid for the first mile and thats that. some have lost upto £16,000 not janitors but high rankers. single status will destroy councils my idea is simple get out whilst i can,i can always go back to plastering but thats in the extremely negetive section.

Well thats me through the Highway Code & Driving today. The Highway code is very easy, so nothing to worry about. The driving was a visit to St Machar Cathedral. Then it was back to the taxi centre, pay my due's and off to get my mug shot. So car is looking very good for tomorrows Hackney inspection & hopefully I will be on the road in the afternoon. |

Words of advice, by all means tell us how much or less you earn, but keep it to yourself in your manor. Especially when it comes to talking to punters. You a) don't want them to rob you, and b) you don't want them to get licensed.
