I think it's better to have a chatty cabbie than one that sits there and says nowt!!!

I rarely use cabs - they're so expensive - would much rather give a friend the petrol money to take me somewhere.

The women around here club together to hire a taxi to go shopping Polly. It's much safer than walking through the Spon End subways!

That's fine if you have friends who are willing to share the cost.
I've found the problem when you drive is - some folks expect a lift for nothing - and never offer you the petrol money. They seem to think you're a free taxi service :evil:
