What a diplomatic way of putting it. I'd say pillock myself.
Many moons ago, when I used to drive a taxi, I remember the said Mr. Peake phoning for a taxi for one of his customers on the opening night of his restaurant.
Mr. Pillock: 'I want a taxi at Callum's as soon as possible' (no please or thank you)
Me: 'It will be about ten minutes if that's OK. Where's Callum's by the way?'
Mr Pillock: 'Where it's always been'. Bang the phone was slammed down.
Needless to say he didn't get his taxi.
