Call Sign March 2000

splendid time.
Thanks to Call Sign and the Talk of London management for a most enjoyable evening.

If you would like to be in with a chance of winning an all-expenses paid table at London's premier restaurant / nightclub, the Talk of London (all except drinks, that is!), send a card to Call Sign with your name, call sign and phone numbers on. Losing entries are re-entered each month. If you have already been, you may be interested to know that the cabaret changed at the end of February. If you haven't won but are looking for somewhere special, at Ł37.50 per person, it represents excellent value...Ed

TWO CONES FOR MR WHIPPY?
Further to the letter in Feb's Mailshot from W. Kibble (K86) regarding Whip & Rubber Monthly, I too would like to subscribe to such a worthwhile magazine and enclose my Amex card details below. Those of your like-minded readers might be unaware that I publish a glossy, full-colour mag entitled 'Leather & Chains Weakly', available by subscription only and delivered in a plain envelope to avoid

embarrassing the postie.
For more details of this and other white-knuckle offers, visit my wonderful new website at
www.bondage.co.uk . But hurry, this promotion is for a 'restricted' period only.
Marcus D Sade.
Much against my usual policy regarding anonymity, I have agreed to allow Mr Sade to keep his under wraps - probably PVC...Ed

CINDERELLA?
In the last issue you reported that Cinderella had three ugly sisters. In fact she only had two ugly sisters and one wicked stepmother.

What type of discussions do you have with your passengers, Jonathon...Ed

WHERE'S BIG AL?
As Big Al seems to have vanished, can I do some of his dirty work for him re Call Centre messages? On Tuesday 8th February, the following message came through for the umpteenth time and suddenly it clicked!
11:02 ... To All ... Fr: Call Centre...
IF YOU'RE NOT ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR E14C RANK, PLEASE BOOK OFF.

At last I thought I understood. If you are on the right side you should book off - therefore if you are on the wrong side, you can book in. But now I really feel confused!
David Ammar (L75)
It's all those Taxi Driver of the Year Shows you entered and all those traffic cones you had to negotiate. No wonder your mind feels scrambled...Ed

GREETINGS FROM ILLINOIS
May I say that Ii just read your magazine (online) , and liked it very much. I am a cab driver in Rockford, Illinois (USA) and am looking forward to your next issue. Could you please tell me if there is a gift catalogue for taxicab drivers?
Thank you...

ROY TAYLOR
Through Call Sign, may I thank all those drivers and members of the BoM who made enquiries regarding my health during a recent illness. Contrary to rumours, I am still around and getting better all the time! Your concern was most heart-warming though, and again I thank you all...
