Taxi for Gaffney!


Do you remember that advert, I can't recall for what product it was and anyway I wouldn't give away free product placement on this blog. It was with Dean Gaffney from Eastenders and he was in a club. A lad approaches him and says "Oh I like all the stuff you've done on the tv, it would be really great if you just came over and said hello in a minute when my mates get here, they'd be really impressed". So a few minutes pass and this lad's mates turn up and Gaffney walks over and says Hello. The lads all look impressed and then the original kid says "How many times have I told you, Gaffney, not when I'm with my mates". A voice over then says "Taxi for Gaffney". It's a beauty.

Anyway, the subject of my post, taxi drivers, I fuckin hate them, the rip-off bastards! My mates were up for the weekend and we'd had quite a few bevvies and wanted to get to a club. We dropped the misses off at home as she'd had enough and then he proceeded to double back on himself and take us the long way round. He then had the cheek to charge us £7 for a £3 cab ride. Wanker! Anyway, it was fuckin freezing in the queue and they seemed to be operating a 6 out 1 in policy so we fucked it off and went to get a cab back home. Who'd have thought it the same bastard turned up again. Cold and wet as we were, we stupidly got in. He then took us home, which is about 1 minute closer to where the original cab started, and charged us £3! He even had the cheek to say "haven't I just picked you lot up a minute ago?" Yeah you have you cock, and how come the price has halved!
