but he really did come across as someone who was really friendly initially. i gave him a list of places i would like to visit, said i had 2 days and wondered if these places can be done in 2 days. He said no prob, gave me a quote and then i confirmed (did not even bargain or anything! just said ok!) and we chatted and all was more or less settled. then 2 days later, he wrote and said he had thought over and that he had to increase the price or i better go get another driver. he said he had been v unhappy over the past 2 days over the quote he had given me. my sense is he could have gotten another deal perhaps.... but anyway, i guess we both aren't fated to be friends....
