The Only Certainties Death and Taxis

I was in the back of a London taxi yesterday and I was asking the cabbie, Mark, about the credit crunch and if he had seen any drop off in his income

He in a true London accent, for you Americans out there imagine the style of Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins, said

“No sir I haven’t, not at all, I just start earlier, finish later and work harder, that’s what you got to do”

I took that as a lesson
