If you ring a taxi from a specified supermarket you have to say which one. In a town you can just say Morrison’s/Sainos and they know exactly where you are.
Thought about this after walking past 2 Lidls on the way home yesterday. Probably not worthy of its own thread.
I had a really confusing drunken conversation with a taxi operator because I was trying to order a taxi to Hope Street, behind the Theatre Royal. She was insistent that there’s no theatre on Hope St. I very indignantly stated that of course there was, I’m looking right at it.
I’d called the St Andrews taxi firm in my phone, hadn’t I.
I think just generally the attitude of a small number of people and how they conduct themselves when outside at night. That baseline assumption that if you want to be able to sleep through the night you shouldn’t be living in a city.

This reminds me of when I used to put on gigs and a band was running late. My mobile rang and it was a band saying that they’d got a bit lost but were currently on Oxford Street. I tried to give them directions but they were really confused. They were on Oxford Street in Manchester and had phoned the wrong promoter. My band turned up five minutes later.
Same but specifically photos on Westminster Bridge where I’m looking furious they’re blocking the security barrier because it offers the best background view of the London Eye
