Not much to see here, but for a change it's the office staff in the line of fire. Wonder what happened - I'd guess no cars available, or service refusal
Or maybe told no cars available, not because there weren't, but as a way around telling him he wasn't wanted as a customer. Or money up front thing?
Anyway, another example of a 'taxi' office described as a *rank* in the headline. Which I thought was more of a north of England thing. But Hemel Hempstead is just north of Watford
