    Well she mentioned after the call it would be expensive and that it wasn't to do with her or something.

    You are still completely missing the fact that this girl made the call to help you. Would you rather she left you there?

    You could so easily have been left in the street. Be grateful that the girl cared enough to boher to phone a taxi to make sure you got home safe. Pay up and grow up and be grateful your alive to tell the tale.

    That's just it though. If I knew I'd pay £19 for a phonecall I'd rather be left in the street.

    Seriously??

    I bet the girls wanted you safely in a cab to make sure they got rid of you.

    You would rather be left to be attacked/ mugged/ run over etc? £19 is a small price to pay for your safety.

    OK, it's just a coincidence that your result happened to be the actual cost of the fare. I thought you'd misunderstood what she was asking for. Sorry. :)

    an apology from Azari? :eek: good grief! :beer:
