Description - Heathrow Cabbie by Alf Townsend
Alf Townsend has nearly half a century of experience as a London cabbie and in that time has made countless trips to and from London’s busiest airport, picking up fares from all over the world, the rich and famous – and the infamous – as well as the downright unusual.
Collected here, and interwoven with the history of the development of the now-massive Heathrow, are a wonderful selection of Alf’s stories. From an encounter with Her Majesty the Queen to the antics of the ‘Omelette and Chips Gang’ and from doing the Knowledge to the characters in the taxi feeder park, this book will tell you all you could possibly want to know about Heathrow Airport and Heathrow Cabbies.
