This is a talk by a London taxi(出租车)driver.
ve been a taxi driver for nearly ten years. Most London taxi drivers have their own taxis.
Its a nice job most of time. you meet a lot of people. I always work at night, because there is too much traffic during the day. I live twenty miles(英里)outside London and I go to work at 5:30 in the afternoon.
I usually go home between 2 and 3 in the morning.
Some very strange things happened late at night .The other day I was taking a woman home from a party .She had her little dog with her. When we got to her house, she found that she had lost her key. So I waited in the car with the dog while she climbed in through the windows.
I waited and waited. After half an hour of ringing the bell I decided to find out what was going on .I tied the dog to a tree and started to climb in through the window. The next thing I knew was that the police came. They thought I was a thief(小偷).
Luckily the woman came downstairs(下楼).She must have gone to sleep and forgotten about me and the dog!
