The IRA set off some bombs in London in February 1991 and I was scheduled to leave for home (U.S.A.) that day. The authorities shut all the train stations, so I took a taxi ride from downtown London to Gatwick airport. The traffic was horrible because of all the train stations being closed and I think it took about 3 hours and cost about 50 pounds (almost $100.00). Later I found out I could've taken the bus for far less money but the queue for bus tickets looked really long. Little did I know I could have gotten a bus to Gatwick without queueing for a ticket.

I see my life as a long taxi cab ride. I get out , see the sights and jump back into the cab with the meter running.

From my town to Mexico City, about 3 hours and 600 pesos. With the exchange rate, 600 pesos doesn't seem like much, but when you make 50 pesos an hour ...

An all day hire. Took the driver for lunch with meter running. There were two of us. In total it was cheaper than hiring a car. That was 10 years ago. A great day out.
