Another winter week + another storm incoming = another name for said storm. 

Storm Dudley’s due any time soon, then it’ll be Storm Eunice, as the A-Z naming pattern continues. 

Pondering if they might be running out of names, I wondered if they might be interested in using taxi terms for future storms…if so here’s a Glasgow Taxis A-Z they can take inspiration from: 

Storm App – what do you mean you’ve not downloaded it? Do it now!

Storm Busy – yes, that old chestnut. “Busy tonight, driver?”

Storm Council – can’t live with them, can’t live without them! PS. They set our prices … 

Storm Driver – that’s me!

Storm Electric – and this is where we are heading, vehicle wise 

Storm Fare – could equally be Storm Fixed price, cos that’s what we offer

Storm Glasgow – the city we all know and love 

Storm Hackney – a proper, good old-fashioned, bona fide taxi term 

Storm Intelligent – how to describe a Glasgow Taxi driver part 1 (ha ha)

Storm Jags – many taxi drivers claim to support Partick Thistle, for a quiet life

Storm Knowledge – every Glasgow Taxi driver has got this 

Storm Lavvy – and every Glasgow Taxi driver needs this at some points during a shift!

Storm Motorway – sometimes our best M8, sometimes our worst

Storm Nightshift – god bless all those who serve tirelessly through the wee small hours 

Storm Otago – a great Glasgow street name and gave me something to use for the letter O!

Storm Passenger – this is why we do it. People Make Glasgow Taxis 

Storm Quick – time of day, traffic, instinct … all factors in a driver deciding the quickest route 

Storm Rank – a word with many meanings in Glasgow! But I’ll sit with the one we know best … 

Storm Six – the number of seats the majority of our cabs now have

Storm Troon – every Glasgow Taxi driver’s second favourite Scottish location 

Storm University – blessed to have three great Unis (and many great colleges) in Glasgow 

Storm Valet – a regular investment for us all 

Storm Windscreen – our view of the world 

Storm Xylophone – we get everything left in the back of a cab

Storm Youthful – how to describe a Glasgow Taxi driver part 2 (ha ha ha ha)

Storm Zzzzz – what we do at the end of a shift, and what you may be doing now!

And that’s a wrap! Storm SS for Stay Safe!
