taxi

[millerxxx]

my friends son is going to court soon
he has a brain of a ten yr old
phyically ok
he has touched a women on a bus
which we believe is untrue
he has to get a tazi with hisparents
his dad has diabetes triple by pass
the son is on benefits like his dad
would they be entitled for a refund of the taxi fare
thanks for reading this

[snags]

I think the taxi journey refund is the least of his worries, no?

[Bbbananas]

I should think the benefits would pay for it, if they ask.

[ummmm]

This has to be a wind up....

[Bbbananas]

exactly what I thought ummm....
I don't see the benefit of it ?

[bednobs]

if it's anything like the help with health costs scheme, they will only be refunded the amount of the cheapest way to travel there - ie get the bus fare, and he will probably only qualify homself, not someone to go with him. However, i'm not sure even such a thing exists for court appearances

[Suzannew]

No. Only prosecution witnesses I believe can claim travel expenses.

[smudge]

If you are that concerned miller - 'praps you could pay for his taxi.

After all, that's what friends are for....

This thread is a wind up.

"I just robbed Lloyds TSB and shot and killed three people, including a policeman. I have to go to court on Monday. Would I be better buying a day saver ticket or a normal return ticket as the day saver is 10p cheaper?"

[McMouse]

I'd get a single one-way ticket................you aint coming back

[redcrx]

is it a wind up?

seems to follow a post from december, though at that point the guy had touched a few women up

Why do people waste other peoples time in posting ridiculous threads??
