Shanks said no Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Well done once again cabbies, saw you passing at Haymarket and as ever it brought a smile to my dour coupon. Colin the Jambo at Tesco's Haymarket Terrace was far too an easy target for the water pistols, you could hardly miss him. ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done Edinburgh cabbies. I went on a few taxi outings with my daughter, the first about 20 years ago, and I think I had more fun than the kids, soaking anybody we passed, especially the police. Not one person acted like that utter arsehole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpie Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I guess like everything else it has changed over time, I seem to recall it was a trip to Gullane or something in the early days. They certainly go all out now, and good for them, have in years gone by had my good days and bad days with cab drivers, but this has always been a day where that was put aside and was an excellent and I am sure still is effort by the taxi people.

Hairdryer Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Well done to all the drivers and volunteers the private hire driver was probably making the soaking with the water an excuse as it’s no secret they dislike the more professional Edinburgh taxi drivers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gashauskis9 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Love the Taxi outing. My Dad had his own successful taxi business for 30 years before he passed away and he lived for stuff like this. Outside of Xmas, this was always his favourite day of the year, he loved it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Findlay Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I was one of the kids who had the great fortune to be in one of these tax is way back in 1975. Was a marvellous day out. Thank you cabbies. Long may it continue for years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig_ Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Haven't these kids suffered enough, having to listen to taxi drivers' drivel all the way to East Lothian and back?!
