ADD to your “KNOWLEDGE”

royzieknight@hotmail.com — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 13:40:51 +0000

In TANDEM with learning the KNOWLEDGE also learn some
important Historical facts about the Great City you will be
working in once you attain that coverted GREEN BADGE.
You dont want to sit in your CAB and be asked a
question that you cant answer; this will make you look
dumb and unintelligent. Being able to give reasonable
answers, and good and reliable information is the
difference between a GOOD CABBY and a BAD ONE ,
and a GOOD TIP && NO TIP !!!!

Hi there to ALL LONDON CABBIES I just…

Hi there to ALL LONDON CABBIES!

I just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU for the excellent work you do and the commitment you show in making our journeys easier.I’m the parent of four special needs children and have the pleasure of using your cabs on a regular basis. My family have been lucky enough to attend the Xmas party you provide every year[ for the first time this year] it was fantastic, I understand that you also organize day trips as well, you are amazing!! so thank you all so much, many families benefit from your kindness.there is something I would like to bring to your attention.Is there a possibility that who ever organizes these events please consider that the phrase ‘under privileged children’ as being very offensive.On the goodie bag as we were leaving was written these words.As parents we do not see our children as being different or even under privileged, quite the opposite actually, we live in an amazing country there is NO ONE that is under privileged unless they are being oppressed starved or abused and my kids do not fit that description.So I hope you are not offended by what I am saying here, I would just like this to be changed if possible, is it?

Hi, I’m a freelance journalist and I’m looking for cabbies who collect watches (sounds obscure, but we’ve run into quite a few). If you’re a cabbie with a serious mechanical watch collection who wouldn’t mind being in a national newspaper and you’d be willing to do a quick interview and possibly a photo shoot of you and/or your collection, please write me at cwlumm at yahoo dot com or tweet me @TheLummer. Thanks!

Man convicted of taxi driver Mohammed Arshad’s murder

alan — Wed, 01 Jun 2011 10:32:04 +0000

A man convicted of the murder of a taxi driver who was stabbed in the head in a country lane has been jailed for life.

Andrew Bayliss, from Birmingham, denied killing Mohammed Arshad, 36, in Wast Hills Lane, Kings Norton, near the Worcestershire border, in July 2009.

He said he had been in the cab but did not kill Mr Arshad, the court heard.

The 29-year-old, who had debts of about £20,000, hit on a plan to relieve the financial pressure by robbing a taxi driver, Judge Alistair McCreath said.
