Scott Marshall has done BRILLIANTLY.

His failure to find a developer for Preston Barracks keeps me in continued employment.

hi take me to freshfield place, stopping at coronation street... then onto telegraph st...how much roughly driver

 

[Return of the Rev]

£3 extra for that beard sir

And I don't like the way you kept the meter ticking over while we waited ten minutes at that level crossing. What was wrong with going another way?

taxi drivers are obliged to take you the shortest route,might not be the quickest,if you want another route ie longer you are entitled to asked.

That's what I would assume. HB&B seems to be unaware that the New Church Road route from Station Road, Portslade (or Boundary Road as he incorrectly called it) to St Andrew's Road, Brighton, is not only quicker, but shorter than the Old Shoreham Road route.

And I thought that the point of his game was at least to get that element right.

Mind you ... I'd willingly pay a taxi driver extra to avoid passing the site of the Goldstone Ground - although, in this instance, I shouldn't have to even think about that issue.

Look the best and most efficient way to get you from the bottom of Station/Boundary Rd (I know nothing of Portslade) to somewhere off Ditchling Road was via the Old Shoreham I don't do Olive Road it smells!

 

[Lord Bracknell]

You don't go via Olive Road, if you are looking for the shortest / quickest route. Try New Church Road - Church Road - Western Road - Montpelier Road - New England Hill - Viaduct Road - Ditchling Road.

 

[8ace]

ok well the Drove is one way, so well will do a left in to Robertson Road, then another left into Hampstead, a right the top in to the non one way part of The Drove then continue over and into Hove, down the droveway left at the bottom opposite Hove Park, along Goldstone Crescent left at the lights into Old Shoreham Road and I will just pull over here next to the police box.

Why not turn into Kingscote Rd or Scarborough road
