For Higher

A man is standing at a bus stop looking at his watch when a black cab stops; the driver winds his window down as he speaks.

CABBIE
"You've missed the last bus mate, how far are you going?"

MAN
"Camden"

CABBIE
"I could get you there in ten minutes for ten quid"

MAN
"Ten quid for ten minutes, f**k off you robbing bastard!"

CABBIE
"Suit yourself"

The black cab then accelerates and flies up over the roofs and into the night sky.

Without wishing to seem conciliatory as may have been suggested in the 'critique' of critique, this is good stuff in my opinion. I love reading people's efforts. It just happens that I mostly like what I read.

Yeah liked this, an unexpected end is always good for me.

The ending came as something of a surprise as it wasn't signalled in the set-up. I thought the exchange between the characters was leading toward something that may have been to do with prosty-lady.
