    Pretty much exactly what my thinking was. Went out there last time and it took me nearly two hours to get out the car park.

    Shell were running free buses up there all week but like you say unless you're running low on pens or balloons with Petrofac on them then it's a waste of time.

    The only good thing about it is how much it annoys the taxi drivers. Had one yesterday and he moaned like **** about the "coloured guy" he had to take out there <laugh>

    Aberdeen taxi drivers are ****s. At least in Glasgow they've usually got some patter.

    Anything that isn't a business account up here they treat like it's a favour they're doing you then rob you blind for the pleasure.

    There's a lot I dont understand about taxi drivers. Why clip the seatbelt in but put it behind them? The way they drive they really should be wearing the things.

    Someone needs to answer this. I've always wondered that too.

    Taxis and getting ripped off always reminds me of Clint Eastwood in Coogan's Bluff

    Taxi Driver: That's $2.95, including the luggage.
    Coogan: Tell me, how may stores are there named Bloomingdales in this town?
    Taxi Driver: One, why?
    Coogan: We passed it twice.
    Taxi Driver: It's still $2.95, including the luggage.
    Coogan: Yeah, well there's $3.00, including the tip.

    Absolutely. We're particularly fond of beef but we do lamb mincing sometimes too.

    Because otherwise the beeping 'put your seatbelt on' thing goes off constantly <ok>

    So why not just wear it then? That was the point I was making

    Because they're often obese greasy ****ers and it separates their moobs uncomfortably?

    I drove taxis for a while when I was in college.


    Picked up a dodgy looking skank one night and I had a feeling I was getting bumped for the fare, sure enough we made our way to Drumchapel and up some seedy alley. When I turned round to tell her the fare she opened her legs and said "Can you take it out of this?"

    I said "For ****'s sake hen, have you not got anything smaller?"
