Taxi: John from Underhill Road


lightweight

Recommended Posts

He used to take such a lot of pride in his stretch of Underhill - we miss seeing the flowers he used to plant around the trees, and he used to be very generous at helping some of the older residents keeping their hedges trimmed etc. He was always outside washing his cab, which was spotless.


We always think of him around Xmas, he used to decorate his house with lights and a Santa, my kids (even though they were still preschoolers when he died) still remember going to see it.


Definitely a much missed local character.

    • Sire you weren't around the back of the station where asking for a fag has a whole different connotation
    • Very grateful for any recommendations (not ads, please) of sleep consultants that anyone has used with success. On 5-6 wake ups a night with our son and needing some help to change things. Thank you!
    • Yes, should have given up by now but haven’t. Was waiting for my train yesterday and went into WHS on platform to buy a pack of fags. Almost feel to the floor when guy quoted me £28.00 for a packet of Silk Cut purple. Was a long day for me and thought I had totally misheard him! Asked again, only to be told that that was the price whuch is well over the odds..when I queried it as have bought, admittedly end of last year was told “ this is what management charges”. Surely this can’t be right…fags stayed in WHS paws while I bought some in Herne Hill at normal price. Still reeling over shock…..     
    • I use the one in peckham where lidles is they are really good if you need somewhere closer
