"Missed my 9am call time.
"My cab was a Tesla surely they should have provisions for that.
Just Stop Oil have been causing disruption and irked Chris Kamara

"Electric Car access lane on you go Sir."
The group have targeted the Department for Energy Security for Net Zero, using orange fire extinguishers.
Some arrests have been made, with the Metropolitan Police also called to four other situations in the capital at Marylebone Road, Westminster Bridge, Victoria Street and on Vauxhall Bridge Road.
In all cases, police have issued section 12 notices to demonstrators as they continue to clamp down on the protests that are happening on a frequent basis.
Per the Daily Mail, an activist was seen punched and kicked to the floor after some individuals had blocked a road in South Kensington.
This apparently caused a pregnant woman to crash her car.
Just Stop Oil have taken to Twitter today to insist one of their members was assaulted.
"Daniel was assaulted while marching this morning, and remained nonviolent throughout," they said.
"Disruption is difficult, but it's necessary."
An eyewitness was also quoted as saying: "The protest was just like so many others we've seen in London with a string of people in orange bibs blocking two lanes of the street and marching slowly.
"The two lanes on the other side of the road weren't blocked but were going slowly as people looked at what was happening.
"A silver car I think must have been trying to switch lanes and he got hit at low speed by a van behind them on its driver side.
"A woman got out of the car and she was shouting at the protesters and then a man got out too and he just rushed over and started attacking the guy who seemed to be leading the Just Stop Oil group.
"He punched him to the ground and then kicked him when it was on the ground. It was quite shockingly violent. It happened really quickly."
The group insist they have honourable intentions.

But the public's patience is running thin and police are now under increasing pressure to act.
With The Open approaching this week, there are concerns JSO will attempt to cause more disruption there.
They have targeted tennis and cricket matches in recent weeks via Wimbledon and The Ashes.
But golfer Jon Rahm has made it abundantly clear he won't stand for their antics.
“I do have a reputation, so I hope they don’t catch me on a bad hole,” Rahm said.
When asked if the group could impact his chances of glory, he added: “I really don’t know.
"I’ve seen a couple of those things. I know they’re going for an impact.
"I saw a couple of them intervening in Wimbledon, and obviously this looks like it could be a perfect spot.”
