Following the recent meeting in his role as Chairman of the London Taxiboard with Ilford North MP Lee Scott at the House of Commons, Brian Rice returned the compliment and invited Mr Scott to Dial-a-Cab House to have a look around our new building.
   For over 3 hours, Brian showed Lee how DaC operated - from our Customer Service to the Call Centre.
   Brian Told Call Sign: "Lee Scott takes a very keen interest in the London taxi industry and took great interest in seeing how we operated. He certainly looked suitably impressed and even though he undoubtedly has a great knowledge of the taxi industry, after today we hope he has learned even more.
   "As the tour took place during the tube strike, we were extremely busy and at one time there were 40 calls on hold. I think Lee was impressed at how we coped at the office end."
   Brian ended by saying that he and Lee Scott would be having regular meetings in the future to discuss matters affecting the London taxi business.
   Lee Scott told Call Sign: "My thanks to Dial-a-Cab for their hospitality and I congratulate them on a first class operation. I look forward to many years working with the entire industry to protect and stand up for issues effecting the first class service that Licensed Taxis provide."
&   Another visitor also popped in for a look around – Radio Taxis Group Executive Chairman Geoffrey Riesel took the Brian Rice tour of DaC House and Like Lee Scott, also expressed admiration …

The Science Museum has announced details of a major new exhibition that focuses on technological solutions to slowing down climate change - Can algae save the world? Other important questions about solving climate change’ will aim to engage visitors in the debate on possible solutions to mitigate climate change and find out more about one specific technology – something that should interest Dial-a-Cab drivers - biofuels.
   Among the various objects and interactives featured in the exhibition is an area dedicated to algae – as one potential way to help save the planet. Visitors will be able to see a Mini Algae Farm, a device to grow algae and learn more about how it could be used as a biofuel as an alternative to fossil fuels to help save the planet.
   Held in the Science Museum’s Antenna Gallery, the exhibition follows the government’s recently announced Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation initiative, which requires that 5% of fuels sold at the pump by 2010 must be biofuels.
   The free exhibition is sponsored by Siemens and will run in the Antenna Gallery for six months from 18 October 2007 until April 2008.
