That's a really good Idea for a new Thread....
What Ring Tone Do you have on your Mobile Phone

[madcat]

I currently have American Idiot by Green Day on my ring tone... but it rings so rarely, that on the odd occasion it does I never recognise my own phone!! And i think someone has a cool ringtone! !! D'Oh!!

Another thing that annoys me is, waiting for a taxi, they are always late, if i can make the effort to be ready on time then they should be here on time, and it also annoys me that if i left the taxi driver waiting i would get charged waiting time, maybe i should charge them next time lol

Talking of taxi's... it really annoys me when you ring up to see where they are as they are late, and they tell you that the car is just turning into your street to get you off the phone.. and you are still waiting ages! We only live in a little cul-de-sac, it doesnt take that long to drive down it!!!

Mike has a radio scanner and we can listen to conversations between the taxis and their base.. it's amazing what people say over public air! Someone actually told someone else their alarm code and where they hide their spare key ... d'Oh!!!

Nothing surprises me with taxi firms.. they are a law unto themselves!

Talking of flights, we just tried to book a holiday for next year with Thomas Cook. We know the hotel has disabled adapted rooms, but TC can't offer us transfers and help at the airport, and can't guarantee that the help we need will be in place.

We have had to book the exact same room with a disabled holiday company to get the help we need, only problem is... £100 more per person for the same time and place... just with help guaranteed... its not on....

That is absolutely disgusting! How do the big firms get away with it? In these days of internet booking it seems that more and more has to be done separately, including all the transfers.

While I am a fan of being able to book on the internet to get the flights and hotel I want outside a "package", there surely should be some way to guarantee help where needed without such a hefty additional outlay - I hope you really enjoy your holiday once you make it there!
