I reckon he has you blocked Ken. You are NEVER getting that dollar. You know it, I know it and yer man definitely knows it. You were taken to the cleaners, end of story.
Your prob right Horse but if he makes the mistake then I will be all over him, the story involves a bit more than this but that's the basics.

No probably's about it Ken. The man made a fool out of you and there ain't nothing you can do about it other than walk around with egg on your face.

This is the word of octygospal ...

Is there a statue of limitations on 'runners'?  Imagine the Guard's reaction when he picks up the phone at 2am and hears Belker telling him about a nearly 2 year old grudge concerning a runner?

Let it go, Belker.  Karma will get him!

Karma won't get shit. Ken got taken for a ride, literally.  Yer man got off Scott free and well he knows it. Meanwhile Ken still thinks he'll get it back. He should wise up and realise he got stung. Badly.

I'm not that terribly worried about it Watty but if the situation arises that I ever do get the scrote in the cab again then I will nail him.

I had a late night fare a few weeks back, 3 lads all going Southside with the last fella going to a village down South, the end fare was €45 but yer-man-o only had €30 in cash and tried to pay the remaining €15 by card which after numerous attempts did not work. I took his phone number and told him that I would send him a sum-up link to pay the remaining €15 tomorrow, which I did and also sent him a text to tell him of the payment link.

He didn't pay and I didn't really care and never chased it again. Then last weekend this fella on a street hail sits in to the cab, I didn't recognise him from Adam and he starts with; "I know you, I owe you €15 from a few weeks ago" which he paid straight away in cash.

Same here. Picked up two crackheads going to the garage and back. Bunratty, the Doc would probably know the address.
Anyhoo, the main geezer says "I left you two euro short the last time, sorry about that". He paid up alongside a tip.
I'd no idea what the f**k he was talking about, but took the money anyway. 8)

It was a (corpo built) private residence on the Avenue, SB.... both burds white Irish born.

I got my 15c back anyway and a reply asking how much the fare was. I only got round to replying yesterday... fare was €18.60.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

I've noticed a lot more multiculturalism in my workplace (generally Coolock, Santry, Artane, Edenmore, Raheny sort of thing) in recent months. I guess Santry has been largely integrated for some time but it's definitely spreading to Coolock, even within the "rougher" council built housing schemes. In fact, I was only thinking that to myself the other week while watching a game of Cricket on the playing fields on Oscar Traynor Rd while stuck in traffic. Cricket - in the heart of Coolock - I kid you not! You'd be forgiven for wondering if Govt are sneaking the immigrants into existing housing schemes under the cover of darkness while the far right protesters are looking the other way i.e. at the former paint factory?

Dublin is changing fast...I picked up three Americans from an Airbnb from the corpo gaffs in Ballymun/Santry lane the other day.

The world is becoming a smaller place. Ifn you were retired with a corpo gaff in Dublin you could probably airBnB it for double what you'd rent a well located apartment in sunnier climes for a few months.

Airbnb is a massive money-spinner if'n you have a decent gaff to rent.

I know of a young Cork lad on a 4 week apprenticeship in Limerick with 2 other colleagues that pay €180 a week each to rent a well maintained 3 bed house from Monday afternoon till Friday morning, that's €540 a week and the landlord then gets to rent the gaff out again every weekend, that one house alone must be bringing in the guts of a grand a week.
