London Taxi driver Charlie Green has decided to call it a day having spent 60 glorious years working throughout the capital.
Born in Stepney, London in 1925, Charlie joined the cab trade having spent five years (1942 to 1947) in the army. As a second generation family member to become a taxi driver, Charlie thought his keen eye for detail, razor sharp wit and profound interest in human nature would make him ideally suited for a career in the taxi industry. He went on to study and pass the Knowledge test in 1948, and soon found himself sitting behind the wheel of a Chinese upright courtesy of cab firm London General at 1 Brixton Road, SW9.
