    I’m not sure I’m being whooshed here @shine166

    - You were offered / negotiated to share a cab with a stranger from Greenwich to London Bridge

    - At some point in the journey the other person gave you money towards the fare

    - At London Bridge you got out and effectively done a runner not paying the driver (and with the other fella’s money he gave you)

    Am i interpreting that right? 
    Yeah thats exactly what happened and after knicking a strangers money I came on here first thing to find out who it was.

    For fuck sake, read my posts and you'll easily see it was a mistake due to circumstances. 
    Wow - that response is a bit strong !!!

    I think you will find that he was simply asking if he had understood it correctly or not !!
    Well I explained myself multiple times and I'm still getting accused of running off with the fellas money

    Right ....

    Got to our station in torrential rain and the trains were scrapped.

    Policeman tells to get a bus, I'm not from the area so have no idea where I'm going.

    Find a bustop and wait.

    Get on the bus to Greenwich and still have no idea where I am or how long it takes.

    Chat to another fan who also needs a cab, decide to share one. 

    Get in a cab, he decides he needs to go Westminster after we've worked out the cash 

    Out of nowhere the driver tells me to get out so he can turn around.... I do as I'm asked 

    Run for my train home 

    Wake up today and I've got the £25

    Make a post on here to try find the fella


    ...get grief on here 

    Don't forget,  not local, don't have a clue of the area, it's pitch black and gashing it down. 


    No, didn't understand a word of that.

    I don’t see that you are getting grief - just some of us were confused, and others made light hearted jokes about it

    Is the £25 your share of the cab fare, or the combination of the cash you and the bloke put together, but you inadvertently had it in you pocket (or wallet)

    Money changed hands, so I think it was more than talking going on.

  • It makes sense to me but I dunno why the other guy gave you cash before he worked out where he was going

    He was originally going to the same place and changed his mind 
  • Got a bloke called @Stuwall on the phone wants to help.

    So is the £25 :- 

    a) Your money
    b) His money
    c) The money you pooled together

    Asking for @AFKABartram 😉

  • This is like one of those mental gymnastic puzzles where you need to get the chickens across the river in a boat without the fox eating them.

    I thought I understood off the bat, but now you've explained it again, I'm confused.

    The cab driver asked you to get out so he could turn around, you got out and run for your train?

    Asked me to get out where we were as it was easier for him, saved fucking about right at the station I guess.
