There are quite a few Octavia's run as taxis here in Portugal.

I'm a little surprised ...I thought that all UK cabs were the proverbial 'London black cab'

But seriously, what are you going to talk about in your own section, that isn't relevant in other sections?

OK, apart for arguing which is the best route from A to B

Dont think its a good idea.

Why stop there? Why not have a police section, rep section, coffee drinkers, Tea drinkers, Petrol, Derv......

Personally I think there are too many as it is!

A Taxi section would have been a good Idea when Grumpy's Drinking Club was open, you could have ordered a taxi to take you home.....My Missus left her Mobile in a cab the other night " Has it been handed in "...........
