'I'll be proud to take you.' said Jerry 'Where do you want to go ?' 'Paddington Station,' said the woman. We got to the station and went in under cover. The lady stood beside the taxi talking to Jerry for some time, and I discovered that she was once Polly's mistress. ' How do you like taxi work in the winter she asked Jerry. 'Polly was worried about you cough last year.' 'She worries because I work all hours and in all kinds of weather,' said Jerry. ' But i get on all right, and i would be lost without horses to look after.' ' It would be wrong to harm your health in this work when you have a wife and two children,' said lady. 'There are many places where good drivers or grooms are wanted. If you ever decide to give up taxi work, let me know.' she put something into his hand.' There's some money for the children.' Jerry thanked her and, after leaving the station, we went home.
