 iconocla.st -- a weblog by Schuyler D. Erle
Traditional London cab drivers are required to go through a rigorous years-long training course which includes hypnogogic instruction in the names and locations of every street in greater London.
Mini-cab drivers, on the other hand, are by and large some guy who just showed up with an unexpired driver's license, and haven't the foggiest clue where even the most basic nearby landmarks are, but they will still promise to take you there for a fiver.
The main difference between cabs and mini-cabs is that the former will rip you off, whereas the latter will rip you off not quite as badly, but with the added thrill of the remote possibility that you may wake up some hours later minus a kidney.
