It was quite funny the Daily Mail report yesterday when they showed Berlin and stating that streets were thronging with taxis yet all the photos showed the taxis parked up in front of the Olympiastadion which is in fact a giant carpark. In fact they didn't block any streets like in London but drove in a convoy around Berlin and then parked up there, jolly good reporting there...

how much was the cabbie's house worth?

can sort of see their point but after years of making good money then they probably need to adapt.

It was inevitable that mini cabs would find a way to upset their monopoly.
