PROBLEM: Next Thursday near 9 AM, I might have to take a cab from La Défense metro station to go to a district which is outside the subway zone.

According to this PDF file (in French) about Paris La Défense (page 4) and this map, there is a taxi station at La Défense not far from the metro station.

Google Street View shows the station, and there are five taxi cabs waiting, but there are only one cab from another point of view. The other lane is empty. This is scary.

Are there cabs available all the time there, or do I have to book a taxi before arriving at La Défense? If I have to book it, is it better to do it a few minutes before arriving, or should I do it the day before my trip?



After being at La Défense for five consecutive times near 9 AM and 9:30 AM, I confirm that there were always a lot of cabs available (always at least five, often more). I believe that this was also the case near 4 PM. Of course, the situation may be different on weekends.


SOLUTION: Do I need to book a taxi before arriving at Paris La Défense?

PROBLEM: While searching the fare spectrum for London - Birmingham, I found these but the main BRFares listing(at the bottom of the page) says "Not normally available for purchase." When are these tickets available and how does one buy them?


SOLUTION: Very cheap but inaccessible UK train fares

PROBLEM: I'm from India and I applied for a Schengen visa to visit Sweden for a duration of 4 days and since I'm 18 years old, to prove my intent to return home after my visit, the Embassy wanted me to submit supporting documents such as the I-20 issued by my university in the USA. Since I didn't have the I-20 at the time and I didn't want to postpone my trip, I submitted a fake I-20. 

They granted me a visa but after a few days, called me back to tell me that my I-20 was deemed to have been forged and thus my visa had been annulled. The official reason on the rejection letter listed was "The information submitted regarding the justification for the purpose and conditions of the 
intended stay was not reliable". The consular official invited me to appeal the decision with genuine documents if I wished to but I've decided to simply cancel my trip for now.

I realize this was an insanely stupid thing to do and in hindsight, I wish I hadn't done it. I have since been issued a valid US F1 visa and also have my genuine I20. If I apply for a Schengen visa again, this time with genuine documents and the US visa stamped to my passport, will I get a visa or will my application be rejected right away?


SOLUTION:
Can I ever get a Schengen visa again?
