Morning Taxi

Well done on the debt and good luck I hope the garage doesn't produce a big bill.

Good luck with that.
Just reading a previous post about what you are good at,reading and listening etc. and had a thought. Why not write a diary, the life and times of a taxi driver. I bet there are plenty of folks who would read it, lots of tales to tell.

Hi Boredofbeingathome...that isn't such a bad idea!!!!!The garage bill wasn't too bad £108.....I don't bother too much how much it costs as I claim it all back against the tax but sometimes it's a pain when it's a big bill making sure you have the money to shell out.
How are you anyway?......
Have done the shopping as well and now have loads of stuff in to last a few weeks.So fingers crossed I will get out to work tomorrow!!!

Thanks Mizmir...I have done all the practice ones online and passed those so hopefully the proper on es are easier.

Hi Taxi!! Another chunk of debt gone :j and I am sure you will sail through your test thingy.

Did you get a prospectus from the college/uni?

I ordered one through the post but it hasn't arrived yet!!!...not nervous about the exam but I am nervous about when they come out and test my driving.
I will manage to hit the £10k mark shortly so am quite happy about that.I have the bill now but am waiting to collect a bit more on the 10th and then will pay that along with whatever else I have here.

Don't be nervous - I am sure you will be absolutely fine!!!

Hi Taxi,
I've always loved History & would love to learn more, social history, more than anything, i watched some programmes on the wives of Henry VIII & was transfixed. I think you have to enjoy whatever you study though & not think of where it may get you as such, as it's hard work, I hope you find something you'd like to do.
Well I've taken a leaf out of your book & booked a holiday to Lake Garda in August:j I am so excited, only for a week, but have been having a real dilemma as we love Florida & I'd love to have gone there, I just don't want to wipe out our savings & this place seems to have everything, train to Venice, the lakes, mountains with cable cars!, theme park, water park, beautiful walled town with restaurants along the harbour & not too expensive, hoping this will be the start of a great love affair with somewhere that is cheaper than Florida, my first & true love :happyhear
I'm just not a sit in the hotel or on the beach type, I need to explore & do things! Hubby comes home from 4 months at sea on Friday too, so am feeling very very happy at the moment:D
