I'mTim. I've been a taxi driver for nearly ten years. Most London taxi drivershave their own taxis. So do I. It's a nice job most of the time. You meet a lotof people. I always work at night, because there is too much traffic during theday. I live twenty miles outside London and I go to work at 5:30 in theafternoon.
Iusually go home between 2 and 3 in the morning.
Somevery strange things often happen late at night. Once I was taking a woman homefrom a party. She had her puppy with her. When we got to her house, she foundthat she had lost her key. So I waited in the car with the puppy. She climbedin through the window. I waited and waited. After half an hour, I tied(系)the puppy to a tree and started to climb in through the window, too.And then the policeman came. They thought I was a thief. Luckily, the womancame downstairs. She had gone to sleep and forgotten about me and the puppy!
