B: We were - and then everything went wrong. We'd made all the arrangements and a taxi was taking us to the airport but just before it , we heard there was terrible traffic on the roads and they were advising people not to use the motorway. So when the taxi came, we told the driver we to the train station instead of the airport. He dropped us off and we got onto the train. But as it was to pull away, it broke down and we were stuck at the station. We were sure we would be late but eventually, another train arrived and we got to the airport. We were just about when we heard that they'd changed the departure time of our plane — it was not leaving for another twenty-four hours! So we put our bags back on the train and here we are!
A: What a nightmare! I hope you intended a complaint.
B: Of course. I planned on a beach right now and instead I'm waiting for another taxi.
