Send him to my house instead. I could do with £20.

I don't let my 8 year old cross a quiet road in the daylight. But she has no road sense.

And I also wouldn't give her a £20 note because sure as eggs is eggs she will drop at least some of it.

In fact she once went next door to buy some eggs with £1 in 20pences and dropped three of them before she got there

Nope, he'd be ages, the queues in our co op are so long. Send him to the One Stop shop instead

More worried about the road and the dark than the money. But my DS would lose it before he got there.
