Christmas eve, 9pm 1980, London public transport was shutting down for Xmas, so stuck @ Charing Cross. Taxi driver refused to take me to South Norwood.
Was that Frank?
I thought they can't refuse and have a public duty to take you anywhere?Was that Frank?
That's why you never tell them when you're still stood outside the cab, you get in and then tell me

Plus, South Norwood? Not me, as I’ve said, I’d go anywhere, plus I got my badge in Nov 1982.

One or two threads periodically descend into Frank7-bashing and it's pretty unedifying. If you don't like his posts just ignore them. The snide comments are especially rich when they come from those that routinely post utter s

Do they all take after their mothers?
In my rush to leave the house this morning I forgot to ask my mother in law (on babysitting duty) if she’d mind putting the slow cooker on at lunchtime with the casserole stuff I’d made yesterday in the fridge to go on.
No worries - quick text at lunch and she replied within a few mins ‘sure, where’s your slow cooker?’
‘In the bottom cupboard next the fridge’
No further reply.
Get home at 6... ‘oh I couldn’t find your slow cooker in the cupboard, hope that’s not a problem you’ll just have to do it tomorrow?’
Ffs no I can’t because nobody is in the house on a Tuesday to put the cooker on at lunchtime. And upon pointing at the slow cooker front and centre in the cupboard... ‘oh, I didn’t look there I thought you mean the cupboard by the dishwasher’

Put the slow cooker on a timer plug or, like we do, put it on Low first thing in the morning.In my rush to leave the house this morning I forgot to ask my mother in law (on babysitting duty) if she’d mind putting the slow cooker on at lunchtime with the casserole stuff I’d made yesterday in the fridge to go on.
