You seem more like a TV presenter doing a segment on cabbies ,you got a natural screen presence mate,really enjoyed that.

Im watching this video after a 10 hour slog at the wheel. My worst days earning this month. Ranked up at St Pancras for 50mins to get Euston 😢. Great video keep up the good work.

Hey, kippers are good for you! Seriously though, good tutorial and it shows there are always easy to figure it out.

What a good find on my home page, well made video and presenting comes very natural to you. Great stuff!

Great little video! Thanks & Happy New Year 🎉

Great video , with lot's of tips to survive the kipper season. 👍🏽

Nice footage Mark! Nice to see your channel grow and progress

More vids like this channel will grow fast

Great editing. Like the video and how it’s put together

Great insight Mark

Really enjoyed this video. 👍

Very interesting Mark, I always try and go away jan and feb. Be lucky...

Great video man

Great video fella 😀

Great video. Another funny thing is that Tom the Taxidriver went to Thailand this January, so you in a way proved your point.

First time viewer, very professional video, I actually thought you were a presenter from BBC or ITV or somewhere, you have a new fan and subscription added, good luck in the future

Hi Mark, love your channel and content and the enthusiasm you give out about the trade and the way that you interact with the punter, I mean politeness i’ve always felt upmost privilege to become a licensed taxi driver although I come out the trade It seems that I’ve lost my confidence to go back to the great job it is my 1st Çab was a Q cab from Micky ascots what’a great job, then part-time or full-time what you put in is what you get out and Interaction that you receive with other Çab drivers creed or religion take care mark. Many thanks

Nice video. You will have loads of work at the Victoria rank when the Rui Hotel eventually opens. As I live around the corner I always use the Vauxhall Bridge and ‘Wicked’ queues as an indication of how busy London is today 😁

It pays to be patient , you will always get a bad day when you don't get flagged down ! This happens occasionally , then your luck changes usually your very last job turns out to be a good one !

I do hours and take roughly the same money each week. Some times will be quiet , but then you have a busy spell when you can't even stop and that's when you can recover from a poor start to your shift or week even . Some days much busier than others

Same everywhere mate!!

So many memories. I am the only American born in my family. Mom and Dad came to the states in 1960. I grew up spending summers in London in the 1970’s and early 80’s. We stay at Grosvenor House in the 70’s and the Hilton Park Lane. Going to theater with my mom and battling for a cab when we got out. Cabs to Waterloo to take train to Worcester Park to see my uncle. Then off to Bournemouth to see my grandparents. London is the greatest city in the world.

It's not that bad I think it is if you work days. I find the evening rush hour and working until 12 alot better in January then struggling on the day shift. I also think you have to do a Saturday if you do that it will make your earnings much better. Good video

This isn’t quiet compared to 10 / 20 yrs ago. And this is meant to be a recession.

Really intelligent commentary

Every January comes around and I always think to myself; "Why didn't I book to go away somewhere?" 🤪 Great video mate! Be lucky!

Fab presenter. I don't give a toss about London cabs but someone should sign this guy p to host a TV show

Hi Mark, I do enjoy your videos, I wish you could make more of them. I think drivers who work at only the most lucrative times of the year can’t deliver the same quality of service to their passengers, as their knowledge of the streets, one way systems etc will be a bit rusty!

Just take the whole month off like I used to when I was DRing. Working thru a whole winter non-stop is pretty brutal every if there is plenty of work.

Great 😃👍

If you work by number of fares (or money) rather than hours, then statistically you earn a lower hourly wage. This is because you spend fewer hours working on busier days, and more hours running empty. It makes it easy to adjust to emptier weeks/months/years where you _need_ to work more hours, but you can just increase your weekly hours when money's tight, it will take fewer hours on average to hit your target.

Great video. The only thing that was kind of off putting, the background music. I suggest not to use the background music for the whole length of the video. It's good whenever it's needed. But constantly listening to it makes us miss out the real noise of the world. Anyhow, I Enjoyed the video and you have earned one more subscriber today.

Imagine working in a firework factory. Kipper months January to October.

Doing 2 rush hours shifts is for butters ,should be cutting your hours by now.

Generally ranking up is still better than driving around aimlessly for hours when it’s quiet, and I think Easter and august are far worse than jan imo

Never mind kipper season mate bangkok is where its at ,!!!!! You kmow this 😊

like i do save to get through the months its uk

1st taxi driver who is polite. Rest are so rude

Last time i remember ,a short trip was at least 40 quid 😮

Where did you get that coat? It looks amazing.

Other seaso is the Salmon season

20 minutes plus the time it took you to get to the drop off point.

I’m driving in Glasgow this is the worst January !!

I’d rather use Addison Lee half the price than a black cab

Just a quick question isn't possible the taximeter integrate in the screen from the car that you have?

Tip to survive the kipper season, work like normal 🤷🏼‍♂️the moneys out there as always! I’ve done same hours as I normally do n actually took more money last mon to fri than I did any week in dec 🤣cab drivers are lazy generally

😊😊😊😊👍👍👍👍

You did in 1 job what I did in 2 jobs over 3 hours,,,, kippers indeed.

Sir you'd be a great TV presenter

Just subscribed a year later 😅I'm a bit slow blame the 20mph as a fellow london cabbie ❤

Hard times while wearing a belstaff 😆

Uber is the best 👌

I am pleasantly surprised on the work levels at the moment. Sunday i did rather well, very similar to pre - xmas levels. Like yourself i rarely rank up. Sadly I’m i little reliant on the apps this time of the year.

🚕👏

Mark is bringing a whole new definition to "Ambulance Chasing" sitting outside hospitals😊😊

mark it is me Henry

Ruined by 1000's of adverts.

🏁🏁🏁

🤗❤️👍👌

He posts on his KZfaq channel in the hope of making some extra bucks 😂

Mark is it true a lot Black Cabs driver in London Uk🚕 do NOT pick you Black people & why is that .

They don't they're all in Thailand playing golf

Trying to reach a target is stupid , sometimes you can do 12 hours and not get it . Your just putting yourself under more pressure , and no I’m not a butter boy 20 years worth

You get nothing went you sit indoors

Iam feeling it as a Uber driver in London 🥺

A bad mouse Relies on the one hole

January isn’t even quiet if you do the job properly

He lives on the money he’s made from not paying his full tax over the last 11 months.

He's talking about kipper season.....all his got to to do is stop wasting his money on worldly goods like that Belstaff jacket...!

I brought my girlfriend from Thailand to London for a week we walked down the road 5 minutes to Hyde Park juntion of Oxford street and when we got a taxi back it cost me £19 He went up and down every street and when I says why did you not turn right at HP Corner he say oh yes I could of done that So much for the knowledge 😆 🤣 Or do you think Thai tourist

What is the furthest out of London you are prepared to go?

If you can afford kippers your doing ok

With the rise of uber london taxis are on te declin3

I am watching you guys without passengers you’re on bus line with passengers you’re in front of me and stuck yourself in traffic jams try to be honest please 😂😜

Get over the golf course and play some of his mates for money!, that's where they are most of the time anyway.!!

Why did you 'Belt Up' 09:15 ?? You DON'T have to Clunk Click ???

Hmm finally, long time since you could be bothered to upload a video.

You must have no life working that way 😢

Blame Brexit for this mess and disaster 20mph speed limits in London main Roads.When you exceed 20mph speed limits you pay £100 fine and you lose 3 points of your driving license.Nightmare for drivers.

This is easy you go A to B via C to Z

Good idea making money with KZfaq videos😂👍

you steal money the other 11 months so 1 should not be a problem?

I’m Liverpool cabby fr 20 years mte so rite don’t give up that easy keep goin u mite think on bad day it bad but sumtimes stuck it out u can do your ££ ❤️‍🩹
