fortunately my friend has been before and unlike the taxi driver, who was a dub, knew where she was going. he had the heat turned up high which is a trick to make the meter work faster and get more money and tried to take the scenic route.

Fuinseog, your style of posting in this forum is not welcome.

It is pointedly looking to start arguments and basically troll people.

Next time you post in this fashion, I will ban you.
