As I have said before, there is a "knowledge" in Bristol and South Gloucestershire and many other places. If you care to google it you will see As Mcjrpc quite righly says, it only applies to Hackney Carriage Drivers not private hire.
Moderator, I can back up, what I have said , the evidence is well documented, regarding ovecharging and by whom. I myself was involved for many years in that aspect of the taxi trade.
I expect Enid Blyton's Noddy, will be next to get the chop. Calling his friend ' Big Ears', rather rude and the 'Tubby Bears', a reference to obesity. Calling the Policeman Plod also springs to mind. Of course as well Noddy was a taxi drver, I wonder about the stickers on his cab.
What makes you think you are in a position to make observations about cowboy customers then flo? Perhaps you have a connection with BJ plumbers?
Not just plumbers Brooklyn, I've lived here a while now, tradesmen, either just don't turn up or come and go according to the tide. I don't think I'll ever get used to it .
I hope BJ doesn't stand for what I'm thinking.
I too need a plumber, to take out an old electric shower and put in a new one. The last "plumber", I engaged, turned up wearing spurs and a stetson, need I say more. Who ever turns up please keep in mind, you'll be the official plumber to the gereatric King of Rock and Roll. Call me an old cynic, but might it be that kenny is Tom Franklin in disguise.
No she's taller Brooklyn.
Not only the King of Rock and Roll, but rather good at getting people going !
Like it or no Mcjrpc there is a lot of interest in the true identity of smella. So speculations please , on the back of a fag packet, left behind the bar at The Whte Hart.
