Wing Cars Private Hire and taxis
 
Tomorrow our youngest regular passenger 5 yr-old Tyler Jellis-Mead from Wing who has autism, will attempt to kick the length of his school swimming pool to raise money for Sport Relief. Anybody who would like to pledge a donation to Tyler can send a message here or call Wing Cars. Tyler only began learning to swim in September when he started school, but has come on in leaps and bounds since. Well done little man, it is a great achievement!
We are now waiting to hear when our 96 yr-old customer will attempt to swim the Atlantic in record time!

Not really news as it happened well over two hundred years ago, but found it on a very interesting website with a lot of history about Wing village. You can read about this and many other Wing facts at www.wing-ops.org.uk
Dr William DODD, vicar of Wing 1775 to 1777 (apparently he delivered a grand total of four sermons to the people of Wing, despite his assertion at trial that he was not an idle minister), was hanged for forging documents in the name of his patron and former pupil the Earl of Chesterfield, who owned Ascott Hall. He only had a couple of days to use his ill-gotten gains to pay outstanding tradesmen's bills before the deception was discovered. The trial report includes some modern concerns such as his ability to get a fair trial given the media publicity before the case was heard! - 1777 Proceedings of the Old Bailey

The big question is...is Wing Cars on the slippery slope to rack and ruin? Bridget has taken 3 days off...AND LEFT THE PHONES AT HOME!!!
You can hear the shock and horror reverberating around the villages when another voice answers the phone: "Oh, sorry wrong number", or a timid questioning "Is Bridget there?" often accompanied by nervous sobs.
Well worry ye not!, Wing Cars is well and in the capable hands of Justin until Wednesday.
As for Bridget, she still has not overcome her fear of flying, so took a busmans holiday by driving herself in a taxi to the Las Vegas of England, Bognor Regis. Here, after hitting the arcades, she found herself lounging on the bed surrounded by her winnings. So if next week you get all your change in 2p pieces you'll know why!

Very regular few days, nothing much happening at all. Then yesterday all excitement!
Our very first booking to come from a google search! Well, not that much excitement really, nice to get some feedback though. Let's hope it's the first of many.
Got the first competition going, bit boring really, but we need a slogan :)
Got some more fun items lined up for the coming months, hope we can make it enjoyable enough for people to come back. After all, who could resist the chance to win a £10 taxi voucher!
