Danielle Ashton had been out celebrating her birthday with her best pal Caroline Wilson when their evening ran into bother.
It was late when the women decided to head home with their young children – but when their pre-booked taxi didn’t show, they were all left stranded out in the cold in Romiley, Stockport.
Caroline, Danielle and the children – aged 14, nine and two – waited in sub-zero temperatures for almost an hour before deciding to book another taxi. When the driver showed up, they refused to take the group due to them having a toddler and a pram.
