RE: Uber Conversations

I think taxi drivers, and uber now, are very knowledgable because they speak to so many people and probably listen to a lot of radio as well. You're so lucky to come across to nice drivers, particularly the last one, as I do worry about you sometimes living on the boat by yourself when Cam is away

Yeah, that night was a lesson for me. It was in the summertime, and I took a bus at about 10:00 PM. I told the driver that I wasn't so familiar with the route because I live on a boat. When he stopped (at where he said was the closest), it meant that I would have to walk 20 minutes down a dark lonely road past a cemetery with no streetlights, then onto the lonely towpath through the bushes.

The driver said he could leave me at the bus stop and I could call a taxi from there... however, that bus stop was lonely, so we agreed that it was best to go back to the city and get a taxi from there.
I preferred to be safe than sorry.

When I got into the taxi, I mentioned to the taxi driver what had happened earlier, and he agreed that I made the right decision in these times. I think that's why he offered to wait for me to get in safely too.🙏

You keep safe, especially in the dark winter days now.

Thank you 😍
