Does anyone know what happened to Jack Greaves and his sister Marion? I was their neighbour 40 years ago. Kieth with the White Merc was my driver when I was doing the school runs. My Husband Tony Crookes used to drive a black cab initially for Burton Street garage, then bought his own, Very happy times unfortunatly Tony died last year.....

i worked for ABBEY TAXIS at the time "BABS" was on the radio, my call sign was "61" i also had another channel that was used if there was any good earners I.E. manchester airport or midlands airport runs, "BABS" used to give us a special message which we then would switch to another channel that none of the other drivers knew of !!! i got loads of "other work" that way, we drove cortina's then that were owned by MR hattersley, the only other driver i knew then was BILLY KIDD, I too used to work the radio when they were short staffed, good times remembered.
