TO ANY LONDON-BASED .ORGERS!!! Next Wednesday my family and I are making a trip 2 London as we have an appointment at the US Embassy at 11AM. We are travelling from Bournemouth 2 Londons Victoria Station. The thing is as we have a specific appointment time(The US Embassy is very fussy and particular about u being there at the exact appointment time), We will have 2 take a taxi from Victoria Station directly 2 the US Embassy at Grosvenor Square.
Anyway, can any London .orgers tell me how much taxi fares are now per mile?? Are taxis still more expensive than buses?? We would catch a bus but then as we have a specific apointment time we prefer 2 take a taxi!! Thanks guys!! | |

We would get hopelessly lost around London!! I know my way around Minneapolis, if I was walking, more than I ever would around London!!! | |

Go to www.mappy.com and you'll be able to get a mini map of your journey from the station to the embassy. You won't even need a compass, because the roads have signs with their names on ..... BULLSEYE! | |

It's not her slagging off that's annoying, it's that she has had nothing positive to say, and this has been getting on all of our tits. So let's be good citizens and help her as much as possible to get the fuck out of there ..... BULLSEYE! | |

Taxi billing is a complex thing in London, they mostly make it up.
It is really not far, certainly not worth getting on the tube. I'd just Walk. Taxi will be about a fiver (unless you look like tourists, then it might end up closer to 10) Happy is he who finds out the causes for things.Virgil (70-19 BC). Virgil was such a lying bastard! | |
