You know full well it's called Victoria Gate, Mark, you're not going to fool me into leaving a....oh, wait... Nice video! Enjoyed the cabbie cut through tip.
Goodness - yes: I didn’t even realise what Kings Gallery was when the chap asked. Of course, Queens Gallery must’ve become Kings Gallery. It’s not right now!
I love the name Blonfontaine🎉 Anyway, i see youre in my neck of the woods again...im off the Ladbroke Grove Holland Park Ave end. If you dont mind me asking do you live in West London/middlesex? I ask because yoy always end up coming up Holland Park Ave when you start work. Anyway, great combination of history and a day in the life of your Taxi journeys, a great way for a born and bred londoner like me to become more informed about my city Im a new subscriber and my favourite video so far is the chocolate cake visit to Fortnums❤ Finally, is the green cab hut still on Pont St? I remember having a lovely bacon roll from there years ago. Thanks for taking the time to edit and upload another video.
Ask anything! Yes I’m west London, based in Ealing. I always amble down the Uxbridge road when I start unless I have a specific booking. The green hut is doing great business on Pont st! Partly because all the workmen from the Sloane st refurbishment use it constantly. Really glad you enjoy the content 🙏🏻
@@Markstaxidiaries yeah or cutaways with the route shown as you describe your decisions and why you make them would be great, although I appreciate possibly a lot more work for the video 😂
Hi Mark, I imagine some of your passengers would wonder why you were going all around the houses to get from the Natural History Museum to Marble Arch. It must be awkward if passengers think you’re going the long way round, when in fact you’re just trying to get them to their destination quicker and more cheaply, than if you’re getting stuck in traffic on the main road. On reflection perhaps you do explain your choice of route to passengers, but edit it out of the video.
I do explain sometimes, and quite a few times the passengers tell to avoid the park going north! You can literally miss 2 birthdays getting stuck there. Thanks for watching! 🙏🏻
@@Markstaxidiaries I think the loudness of the voice over I liked. The volume in the cab was low and 5% muffled. But to be honest you can't please everyone Inc me. So carry on doing what u think is best
@@Markstaxidiaries That's a shame. If I wanted a business, I'd revive one. It must be nice to have somewhere to go to have a bite to eat with some of your colleagues and exchange gossip and information.
I keep getting blocked by freenow and I'm not even booking the jobs in advance, I keep telling them but still they keep blocking me, idiots, dial a cab in the day so much more professional.

Great video again, this channel should have 76.1k subscribers, not 7.61k.
Just love listening to your commentary Mark makes me feel I’m in the cab with You
God bless You Sir and be lucky
You deserve more subscribers. The time lapse is the best
great video again.
Your new mic works a charm… looking forward to seeing London next week! Maybe we’ll jump in your cab in our travels! 🇨🇦
Please do! And thanks for the mic feedback- oh that works on 2 levels 😬
Take the bonus money then bin them off. Wait for their call in two months. Rinse and repeat. Perfect.
😂
Cannot wait, I’m itching to get out - got my Req over a month ago & still awaiting my Finals date. I know of at least 3 in the same boat.
The finish line in sight! Well done buddy, look forward to seeing you out and about!
@@Markstaxidiaries - thanks Mark 👍
Audio is really good on this one mark. 👍
Nice 1 again Captain 👍👍 Nice bit of info about the Tower and The Ravens👌Keep them coming Sir. Looking forward to your next Vlog👍👍
More to come!
@@Markstaxidiaries 👍👍

Nice video! Enjoyed the cabbie cut through tip.
Honestly couldn’t remember at all! I’m 55 and the grey matter is not what it used to be. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Thanks from Sydney , an amazing video blog of your work life . Very entertaining . Admire the skill and knowledge of the London Taxi owners /drivers.
Thanks Sydney! Appreciate the channel support from down under! 🙏🏻
A good man of the People😅
Another great upload Mark, keep them coming please, they are extremely enjoyable.
Thanks, will do!

Nice one sometimes I drop this at green park by the Ritz they walk down
Love it 🚖
Great video as always. Found during the harrods Euston job the music was a bit loud and wasn’t able to hear you talking clearly
Will take a look at the levels, thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Great vid again, cheers.
Great video
Nice...👍.

@@Markstaxidiaries Really Really appreciate the reply, especially letting me know about the green hut. Hope you have a good week ahead.
Definitely an improvement, that new microphone!
I did a fare to Dover £200 cash during the pandemic no traffic so worth it ..
A great job in Covid! First day of shutdown for me worked 9 hours 22 quid
A show suggestion, a video of your most memorable passengers.
I did do a celebrity special video once. I’ll bear that suggestion in mind. Thank you 🙏🏻
A crazy cat asleep!
👍👍👍
Think it would be fantastic if you had a map section of your route and why you make certain decisions
You mean show the route on a map as I’m in motion?
@@Markstaxidiaries yeah or cutaways with the route shown as you describe your decisions and why you make them would be great, although I appreciate possibly a lot more work for the video 😂
Where' Joey Bone?😂

Mark, what card machine/system do you use?
Currently with Taxiworld, but have NatWest TYL On my phone for back up 😉
Nice video Mark, maybe tone the music volume down a bit when your doing the voiceover, at 11:40 I'm really struggling to hear what you're saying.
Thanks I’ll take a look at that 🙏🏻

Where in Plymouth did you live
Just across the bridge in Saltash,
Usually the passenger falls asleep at night after a few drinks.
Very true! Gave up nights years ago though, thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Was that a cabbie shelter on the left at 18:51?
Well spotted! But sadly out of action now 😢
@@Markstaxidiaries That's a shame. If I wanted a business, I'd revive one. It must be nice to have somewhere to go to have a bite to eat with some of your colleagues and exchange gossip and information.

Not yet! But I’ll pop in if I get a job going that way Ali 🙏🏻
Hi mark keep it up you mega superstar Ali Walsall west midlands england junction 10 m6 Walsall churckery up the walsall
Yes all London cabbies are boring. Well known fact according to my breakfast cereal box!
Fruits loops?
@@Markstaxidiaries definitely 😋
The volume is too high.
Will check the levels 🙏🏻
Also, add a few different backing tracks. Using the same one is a bit predictable and boring.
@1ionman Yep! that ones been around for a few weeks now
Hi mark is the cab paided for now Ali Walsall west midlands england junction 10 m6 Walsall churckery up the walsall

They still insist on using metrics and acceptance rates for bonuses! WHY! This has to go too
