A family has hit out at their "heartless" local pub for charging them £200 when they were forced to cancel a meal booking after one of them suffered a serious medical emergency.
Eight members of the Kitching family, including Jamie, 38, and his wife Amy, 33, were due to have lunch at The Black Horse in Little Weighton, Yorkshire, last month on Sunday February 12. But early that morning, Amy received the awful news that one of her close family members, who was due to be at the meal, had been rushed to hospital after collapsing on his kitchen floor.
While Amy rushed to be at his bedside, husband Jamie got in touch with The Black Horse to let the pub know that the family would not be able to make their booking because of the ordeal. But Jamie was shocked to then receive an email back from the venue informing him that the family would be charged £25 per head if they did not turn up for the meal, HullLive reports.
