Taxi cost estimate

[V8mate]

I know, I know, lengths of string and stuff.

Can anyone who uses black cabs regularly estimate the cost of a journey from Liverpool St to Paddington? Will be on a Sunday morning, so hopefully, traffic not too horrendous.

£25 quid (give or take) would be my guess.

Hoped you wouldn't have noticed.

Its 5.7 miles and would be tariff 2 as its Sunday, so £26 - £29 according to http://www.tfl.gov.uk/gettingaround/taxisandminica...

Presumably the tube is closed on your day of travel..............

The tube has major engineering works, which I would live with but want to inflict on my folks.

Also, I read this evening, a potential RMT strike day.
