SMILE

Billy was at school one morning and the teacher asked all the
children what their fathers did for a living. All the usual
answers came out; fireman, policeman, salesman, chippy, captain
of industry etc, but Billy was being uncharacteristically quiet
and so the teacher asked him about his father.
"My father is an exotic dancer in a gay club and takes off all his
clothes in front of other men. Sometimes, if the offer is really
good, he'll go out with a man, rent a cheap hotel room and let
them sleep with him."
The teacher quickly set the other children some work and took
little Billy aside to ask him if that was really true.
"No," said Billy, "he plays cricket for England but I was just too
embarrassed to say it..."

MI5 had an opening for a new James Bond. After all the
background checks, interviews and testing was done, there were
three finalists left - two men and a woman. For the final test,
the MI5 agents took one of the men to a large metal door and
handed him a gun.
"We must know that you will follow your instructions no matter what
the circumstances," he was told, "inside this room you will find
your wife sitting in a chair. Kill her!"
The man replied that he could never shoot his wife and was told
that he was not the right man for this job and to take his wife
and go home.
The second man was given the same instructions. He took the gun and
went into the room. All was quiet for about five minutes, then
he came out with tears in his eyes.
"I tried," he said, "I really tried, but I just can’t kill my
wife."
The agent told him that he didn’t have what it takes and to take
his wife home.
Finally, it was the woman's turn and she was given instructions to
kill her husband. She took the gun and went into the room. Shots
were heard - one after another! Then screaming, crashing and
banging on the walls was heard. After a few minutes, all went
quiet.
Then door opened slowly and there stood the woman. She wiped the
sweat from her brow.
"This gun is loaded with blanks," she said, "I had to beat him to
death with the chair…!"

Hello Ladies & Gents,
Christmas now seems long gone and I’m
sure that we are all looking forward to a very successful year
ahead. The last financial year was the most successful in the
Society’s history and already the current figures point to an even
more rewarding 2007.
Dial-a-Cab is the circuit that everyone talks about and the Board
of Management are fully aware that we must all work even harder to
maintain and continue to cement our position as the number one radio
circuit and leaders in our field. Rest assured that the current
Board are totally committed and we will certainly not take our foot
off of the gas.
You will be pleased to learn that Marshal Chas Kissin (P99J)
is now well on the way to a full recovery and I personally look
forward to welcoming him back onto the Marshal team. I believe he is
very near to returning to work which is very good news.
This year, more than any other, I have received lots of positive
feedback from our clients and I must praise all our Marshals for the
professional manner in which they go about their duties - sometimes
under extreme pressure. With your valued |
support, we
will certainly continue to stay well ahead of our competitors.
Deutsche Bank
A DaC Marshal is now on site from 20.45pm until 23.45pm
(Monday-Friday) and it is very important that you inform them of
your parked location and the correct passenger name on every trip
between these hours.
Goldman Sachs shared account with ComCab
There is no longer a Dial-a-Cab Marshal at this
location, but the account operates in the same manner as before and
you have every right to use the rank and accept all types of charge
cards. It is a shared account, the more we use the rank the larger
proportion of work we will acquire.
Eurostar Concessionary Travel
First and Second class travel is again available to Dial-a-Cab
members and staff, the rates are extremely competitive and most
dates are at the moment available. It is a very popular trip and
well worth considering. Booking forms are usually available in
Drivers Reception.
Finally, can I remind those of you still to pick up your Christmas
gift from Roman Way - together with an excellent calendar showing
photos of old taxis and also a diary - to pop in between Monday and
Friday (8am-8pm).
I look forward to seeing you at the AGM
