I see from the newspaper clipping that the Pink Ladies do SCHOOL RUNS including boys up to 12 years old, no CRB check then

So even if all those 200 signed up used the pinkies once a week, that would mean just under two jobs a day.

And if they shared a car that could mean less than one job a day. :shock:

As night follows day it wont be long till they join up with another local firm, either that or go bust. :wink:

There must be some sad people out there then, going by this snippet from the link

The whole idea has taken off in a big way and we get women saying that our service has given them a new lease of life.
They feel confident to go out again.

Yes that's the bit that has p***ed me off so much. :sad:

Most of the folks on here take 100s of women home safely ever week of the year.

I expect the pinkies wont effect that one jot. :wink:

I wonder what type of Insurance the Pink Ladies are using for their vehicles, "hire and reward" or bog standard insurance??
