Fuming! Had booked a a taxi to pick me and dh up at 11pm and when we went out 4 women were already plonked in it! I politely said we had booked this, which I confirmed with driver, but honestly brazen b**es wouldn't budge. I explained we had booked it as had to get home for babysitter, who we were paying for by the hour. Still absolutely no caring, just like faces chewing wasps. In my mind's eye I was ripping out the driver's keys and pulling biggest b**h out by her hair, reality I huffed and puffed and dh said not worth the agro. So, driver booked another one, which didn't turn up til 45 mins later and we were outside freezing in our fancy dress costumes while those horrible, selfish smug arseholes buggered off in our taxi!

Wibu - they got it so fair play.
Wibu - yes I should've kicked up a huge stink!

Mine was probably warmer. We've talked about it since and he said he would kick up a fuss and doesn't understand why he didn't. I did report it the company but they weren't bothered so us anther firm now. You're right, bitches! Lol Smile

I had hoped they may have an ounce of decency but no they didn't seem they would care if it was an emergency!

I never understand why posters use asterisks in their swearing.

It was obvious that you meant 'bitches', so why not say that? You could have gone one further and said 'cunts', which is perfectly allowable here.

... which they were, obviously.

Point taken, sorry, no offence intended. X

No offence taken! Just pointing it out ...

Jeannie88 · 28/02/2022 19:21

Yes it was just my reaction as they were women, no offence meant against women at all. X

Thanks, having reread what I wrote after not being able to find it for a while, I realise I may have sounded a bit of a dick myself! No offence meant saying bitch or biggest one (big just as in general size), was just very angry and a bit tipsy. If it happens again I will toe myself to the wheel, not that I go out as much now. X

@Jeannie88 it's not a problem using the word 'bitch' at all! That wasn't what I meant. What I meant was, there's no need to be coy about swearing on Mumsnet. It's perfectly allowable!
