1992, Winter, Brighton sea front...
I was walking back from the hospital at three in the morning after a fairly nasty traffic accident when it dawned on me that I may not make it the whole four miles home.
Half blind and resplendent in my bandages I spotted a taxi outside the pier, rootled in my pocket to pull out the princely sum of £3.50 and asked the driver to take me as close to home as the cash would get me.
I watched the meter hit £3.50 and asked him to stop and let me out. He just casually said 'Don't worry about it' and took me all the way home.
Ever since then I've always given taxi drivers a tip.

But boy am I glad I did, I feel suitably embiggened!

Not yet, anyway.
If you really want to say "cunt", just say "cunt". Don't make yourself look like a king of Denmark, England, Norway and parts of Sweden by hiding behind prissy self-censorship.
