Don't worry. It might take a few years but it will pass.

@JL - do you refer to her as 'Hun'... please tell me you call her Hun...
Re: Shite taxis
I do not. I call her 'life-wrecking nazi'. Always best to be clear.

Re: Shite taxis
Had the pleasure of being in the back of a Previa private hire the other day that needed killing with nuclear level fire.
Seat was rocking back and forth in a "not entirely attached" way, the sliding doors didn't willingly slide and whenever the driver braked it felt like he was cadence braking, except he wasn't. What a horribly abused POS vehicle!
Add to that it being filthy and smelly.

‘Shite Taxis’ would make a great name for a northern cab company.
Re: Shite taxis
Private hire cars are utter filth compared to usual black cabs in London. Dirty, small, usually bouncing on the bump stops, they tend to have a faint smell of shit and sweat which must emanate from the driver, slower at rush hour and usually more expensive as drivers have no knowledge of shortcuts.
How about not having a sig at all?

Re: Shite taxis
I use private hire way more than black cabs here, they're mostly newish Skodas and Seats so they're fine. Apart from the awfulness that started this thread obviously.
I was in a new black cab the other day. They're a pretty nice place to be.

Re: Shite taxis
I hardly ever use black hacks - so much more monies.
Re: Shite taxis
I saw a programme on Ch4 the other night about a fake taxi. I fancy a ride in that.
Re: Shite taxis
I saw that too. Crazy numbers (€36M p.a. for subscribers ).
Jobbo - i am not sure the fake taxi driver bloke would be gentle enough with you.

Re: Shite taxis
