Many a winters night have I walked about 5 miles home due to the lack of taxis.

It's 3 miles, will take you an hour maximum, walk it. Don't give them your money if they don't want it!

When the going out season is over they will feel the pinch again, fcuk them!

Well at least you have your laptop with you. Maybe you could e-mail yourself home?

You know, you're right. This one would be so much more beneficial to all (except taxi drivers ... and people who've watched "The Fly")

Another taxi story. No doubtt here was more to it than the opp states. Taxis cannot refuse a fare under 30km I take it your going to complain to the regulator or are you going to just give out on the Internet

I don't think an argument could be made that a Taxi Driver legally would have to drive somewhere if the road conditions were unsafe.

If it's that unsafe, he should be at home in bed tucked up with Mrs. Taximan and not sitting in a taxi rank.

Not really, some routes could potentially be fine while others more hazardous.

Yeah, they'd take you alright, but you wouldn't be going towards your house.

Thats good to know. Does this apply apply to taxis that you might get at a rank or does it apply to hackneys also?

This is why I have no care for taxi's. If they said "Right sir there will be a min charge of 10 euro though i would have paid.(Even though this is wrong)

The only pce of advice I can give to folks is bring a heavy coat and a heavy jumper for over the christmas. If you score you will end up giving her the coat and you dont want to be walking home in a tee shirt....

On a plus side. 3 miles in the freezing cold with a lovely girl wrapped around you sounds like bliss to me.

If your on your own you can always wrap yourself around a strong curry.

Tis the season of madness....

was the disco worth it? WAS IT!?

petes

Christmas two years ago I couldn't get a taxi at 11 o'clock. Walked the seven miles home.

You could have looked for a B& B. It's something I thought of after walking home.

maryjane007

i thought that taxis cant refuse the fare if your actually in the car, they can if you just ring or ask them.

sflemings

Why were people up at 4am replying to this? Should you all not have been in bed? If you are working at that hour why weren't you working instead of being on the internet?

Night clubs all over the land are full of people participating in the drunken slurring of Fairytale of New York. Can it get any better?
