There was an article in the Kentish Gazette this week. A taxi operator had been called to take a drunk student to hospital earlier this year. When he suggested they call for an ambulance as she sounded very unwell. Her friend actually asked what the number to call an ambulance was. When he said '999", the friend asked him to wait while she got a pen and paper to write it down. When she came back she said, oh well we've called you so you might as well come. He took the four students to hospital. On getting there, one went in with the drunken ill person and the other two asked to be taken back to their house on a Canterbury estate. When they got near there, they did a runner after refusing to pay because it was an emergency. They split into two directions Sadly for them it had been snowing. The taxi driver followed one of their footprints in the newly laid snow to their front door, where one of them was shamed into paying him.
