Was going to nc but cba. Was just listening to my friend saying she was going out tonight and someone from work's dd was babysitting, but it's ok 'cos she's "sensible"
Got me thinking all the tricks I got up to babysitting with various mates (early-mid 90s) and specifically the time when we got an empty Coke bottle and filled it with the entire contents of the parents' drink cabinet... Whisky, vodka/ brandy/ eggnog
We ended up spewing (inevitably) and blamed the 7 year old for the mess.
Another time, a different friend had turned down a lad's advances and he launched a brick through the window while we were watching telly Luckily the kids were in bed at this point and we just played dumb when the adults came home.
Aibu to think some parents would literally employ anyone to babysit back then?! Any other stories?
