If the "and" had been an "or" then they may be guilty. This is a private hire not a public service or am I reading it wrong?

Bladdered - Blathered, who cares? I'm getting me some lube free Tichy lovin'.

All vehicles that carry more than 8 passengers class as a public service vehicle (PSV) when driven for hire/reward . The ones that carry less than 8 passengers are a PCV.

Look nobody cares about drinking and coach riding, this thread has moved on to a better place.

So what?

God the fact you know that makes you the most interesting person since ..................well.........................anyone that ever breathed.

I bet you are ace on a night out with your rivetting knowledge of Vans.

Its not free, who said free?

I charge by the inch, thats an expensive experience for you, one that I would hate you to have no memory of because you drink excessively.

Thanks. I'm fantastic with my knowledge of vans and buses, infact i dont go out, i spend my nights looking at pictures of them.

Or is it that i wanted to do this as a career and follow in the footsteps of my Dad.

I know its the latter!

I'd best bring and extra £2.50 then.
