BLABBERMOUTH: Spare a thought for taxi drivers

 

JUST as Yours Truly thought he would no longer have anything to do with this other very unpopular law enforcer who was recently transferred from our beautiful city, issues relating to his movements and conduct somehow keep hitting Blabber’s eardrums.

Word reaching Yours Truly is that the well-known social misfit, whose name has something to do with a bell, was back in town for a visit last week and alas, so much has changed about his way of life in such a short space of time.

Yours Truly felt sorry to learn that the once flashy bloke can no longer afford a meal at the upmarket restaurants where he used to frequent when he was on top of his game.

Those who knew him from his past when he used to terrorise motorists and business operators around the city could not believe their eyes when they saw him joining the queue at one of those dollar-for-a-plate eateries dotted around our beautiful city.

Dear reader, five dollars for lunch is no longer affordable!
As if that was enough, his side chick, the one who used to graze all his daily earnings from corruption, has turned her back on him.

 

In fact, Blabber is informed that he was told not to visit her place anymore because her mom and relatives have suddenly returned from God knows where.

But this is a story for another day!

What is this that we hear about this other taxi driver who is well known around the city as he is widely referred to by a nickname reminiscent of a global yesteryear football star.

I mean that other footie star who once head-butted an opponent in a high profile global football showpiece.

With all his popularity, it is hard to imagine that his life now starts and ends in the taxi he is driving.

That is his bedroom.

 

That is his dining room.

 

That is his living room.

Only if the small ride had water tapes, who knows, it could be his bathroom as well.

The boy is in town all night and day every day, especially now that his wife deserted him.

 

The wife is now staying alone, doing her own thing.

In his taxi, our dear brother now accommodates homeless sluts at night as they wait for the bright sunlight of the next day.

Such is the sorry state of affairs in our beloved taxi driver’s life.

Blabber will certainly find some time to fast and pray for him to have a better life.

Taxi drivers play a very important role in our everyday lives in our beautiful city, especially when it comes to keeping countless secrets for numerous respected persons in our midst.

Till next Friday, always remember to take good care of your loved ones.
