If it wasnt DTC, then dial 181 and ask for the # of the relevant cab company... either Cars Taxi (White with blue and red stripes), Metro Taxi (cream coloured and r mostly peugots), or National Cabs(silver with blue and yellow stripes).
Hope that helps u find ur phone. Life just isnt the same without it.

Would help if u told them the route u travelled...... ie, where the journey began and where it ended. They should be able to give it back to you. In general, most people gt their phones back.

Re: Help!
Daft as it may seem, have you tried calling the Mobile as some Taxi drivers are honest and will return it.

Good old Europe is good. Saw sleet for the first time about 2 nights ago.... wasnt as bad as I thought...... very interesting cross between hail stones and snow..... like microscopic ice crystals. Very nice indeed.
Tis sunny here again today. Bout 6C..... lovely! lol
I am fast approaching 2000 posts...... will save that for something memorable.... hmmmmm..... I feel a pictoral tour of the Uni and the surrounding area, London and my flat in the making.
I met Kristy this Sunday aswell. We had luch at TGIF in cenral London. Was good to meet up with her. She took me on first Tube, which was an experience. Had coffee at Nero's at Covent Garden later. Was a fun day out....... though alot of it was spent Tube hopping. haha
Hows Dubai doing? Lots of sunshine now that the rain has passed? More rain on the way for u lot..... big storm moving in from Saudi.
