Did some tango in Dublin (Dublin Argentine Tango Society) a good few years ago, never mastered it. Could only dream of being able to dance like this, it's exquisite.

Enjoy.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

Amazing strength of character, and personality. We only get one shot at it.

Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light". Dylan Thomas.

Dead at 39!

A lovely poem though.

Rat a nicely worded   Email with attached Docs to Banking Ombudsman .There is a legal requirement on Free Now to maintain proper banking details .They are acting as your Agent in retaining your funds for work completed on their behalf .Object to the renewal of their Certificate of Conformance .Contact the Head Bunker Fuhrer and inform him of your impending action .You should have your coin within 20 minutes of the Bunker opening your e mail .

Gonna replace them with Tap in due course anyway... I'll probably wait 'till Mrs. Catcher is back in school... ideally I only want to work a few hours per morning for the rest of the summer... I think you need to be doing 30+ hours/week to justify fixed freight.... even at the low rate it is set with Tap.

I get fuckall off them since I opted out of the 25% commission... it's only the overflow that they can't cover @ 25% which is generally shite work anyway. Obviously, my credit control dept wont allow me cover app payments for them now so there really is very little left. This week I've done two poxy €15 fares for them... hardly worth wasting my internet on to be honest.

I'd need a judgement to object to their licence and/or apply to the High Court for an examiner/receiver/liquidator to be appointed. A District Court Judgement is always the first step anyway... that gives you something to enforce in a legal context.

Cost them more in labour and coin to reply to a request from the ombudsman about your stolen purse than it would to pay you off .Go all Rumpole on them .If nothing else it will give you hours of amusement .
