There's probably nothing more than coincidence to it... but that shouldn't stop us amusing ourselves.
It's years since the erm wrote a forum pantomime. I wonder what he could do with a collection of characters like:
A bloke who drives a taxi who'll probably retire within 10 years.
A bloke who owns the taxi the first bloke drives along with a load of others, some on completely clapped out shiteboxes.
A bloke running a dispatch firm with a free car which is eligible for huge grants to give away, said bloke being related to the bloke who owns the taxis.
