The rubbish that one can spew after a long night out... I dread to think the things I've come out with over the years. Always had money for the fare though!

Or... just don't carry a wallet. KirkM; Yes but any port in a storm. The ChrisD; NICE find. Not at all strange ;p Quickroute; Most times? Hang on till I see if we have one of them here in our stash... heheh. Terence McDanger; Those yokes annoy me. Brain training my arse! Get handwriting lessons morelike. Nick; They generally would for fares above €30, but this was a short fare with an unexpected return to the pub halfway through the journey to search for the aforementioned jacket. What should have cost €22, turned out to be €31, or thereabouts. Holemaster; Good advice! Or… just don’t carry a wallet.

Nice fare that one. Never was into bourbon that much though especially types like Southern Comfort...too much sugar in it...gives me a lousy head in the morning.

I got a call an hour later and the driver dropped it off to me, happy days. If you have business cards, always leave a few in the money bit so they know who to call! And Yes K8, I gave him the €20 that was left in it! And funny thing, I was sure it was a gold Lexus but it was actually a silver Merc. I left my wallet in a taxi last week.

Ok so Bourbon's not to everybody's taste but I had fun ;p Xbox4nappyrash; Yeah thanks for letting me rob that! Baino; We already have one, but it's faulty. Yer man wanted to send it back to be repaired, but couldn't stand to be away from it that long. This new one will babysit him!!! See, it works on so many levels it's weird.
