Just booked the taxi for the flight tomorrow, and was told if there was any snow about - it would be time and a half ... :o

Is it because driving in snow implies further training is required and you need to pay for it?

Or is it because they will have to use cars with legal tyres?

I get the taxi's from firms based in Crawley, English language is optional and legal cars is way down the list of priorities ...

If I was any kind of friend I would have picked you up when I went past.

I did wave if that helps!

Time and a half! Pah! You can afford it. Just think of us poor under educated under valued NHS workers who've had to scrape together the price of a 10% discount on a handbag to get to work! It's a tough world out there living on a knife edge! Lol

Seriously it's danger money

Have a safe trip
