We have reservations about your taxi reservation
No such thing as a booking. "Pre-empting the high demand for taxis last Saturday night in Auckland, I prebooked a Co-op taxi van online two days prior to drop a group of five at the Eminem concert," writes a reader. "I even phoned to confirm my booking the day before ('Well if you've got a booking number then that usually means it's booked,' they said). Come the scheduled time of arrival on Saturday night, no van had arrived. I gave it 10 minutes then phoned them querying the whereabouts of my taxi. Their response ... just because you've booked a taxi doesn't mean we will have one available! Silly me! A van did eventually arrive, after a lengthy discussion, to get us to the concert in the nick of time!"
Holy guacamole, Batman!
Best Facebook updates: "I just had the Best. Idea. Ever. Ladies - if you are pregnant, and know your baby is a boy ... consider naming your child Gotham. That way, when your baby starts crying in the middle of the night, all you have to do is turn to your husband and whisper, 'Gotham needs you.' And it won't matter if it's the first time or the 50th time he's hearing it, he will get up and take care of business. And you can roll over and get your well-deserved sleep. There you go, ladies."
