Call Me A Taxi And Good Old George

Two long short stories, one sad, one uplifting. CALL ME A TAXI - Gary Allsop, a big Laurel & Hardy fan, is out of work, has a spendthrift wife and a bleak future - and then he meets Jim Moore, an even bigger Laurel & Hardy fan, and his life changes for the better. Until Laurel & Hardy take over their lives, that is....GOOD OLD GEORGE - What do you do when you've just been demobbed following the end of the Second World War and your future looks even more unattractive than the life you've left behind? Start your own business. But if you're broke that's next to impossible - until fate takes a hand and help arrives from a most unlikely source.
