Yep. The did it last year.
Hardly firms, more like one man bands.
The thing is if they clamped down on Taxis, Minicabs and Buses in the same manner thy would also find faults.

Not as many as on a Tuk Tuk though

The Taxi trade locally warned about these Limos some time ago.

Where would we all be without that taxi trade looking out for us all the time ... Having said that, I wouldn't get in a limo if you paid me.

I have looked in the Yellow Pages and there are several firms which do the limos, and more out-of-towers such as Worthing and Eastbourne.

So much for sustainability when it comes to pulling and a spot of kareoke!

Here, what's more, is a Burgess Hill firm which hires out a fire engine, and even rings the siren as it goes about its task. Isn't this dangerous? Won't it make people think, when a rel one comes along, "I'm not pulling over so that another bunch of slappers can get past!"?

Click on the fire engine and you can see inside. Tasteful, furry red fluffy benches!

Looks as if those narrow, upright benches will keep the hussies sitting up?

Don't these things have seat belts?

All it needs to make the journey into Brighton perfect is a hamper from Greggs.
