I've never used a Private Hire service. I strongly approve of the
quality of the service offered by London's taxis. I much prefer a black
cab to the green and white saloons used by most Brighton taxis.

I agree with you which is why I now drive in London rather than Brighton
but I still renew my licence every year just in case I ever need to use
it again - I made that mistake by not renewing my London licence for 20
years and then having to re-do the knowledge!
