bouncy castle etiquette

What is the etiquette after your child has vomited all over another child and the bouncy castle at a new mums and tots Christmas party? Do you (after haing apologised profusely and cleaned said sick up)

  1. Never show your face again
  2. Move house
  3. Go to same mums and tots again and act breezy
  4. Go to same mums and tots again but claim you have an identical twin sister whose child looks very similar to yours?

pmsl! Poor you. I'm sure you're forgiven though, so I'd go back.

pmsl @ #2!!!!

I'd say going back and being breezy is the best bet... I've very shy though, so would end up in reality doing #1

Oh go backand just walk in saying "i hope you've all got your wipes" or something that shows ou feeel a litle embarrassed but you're back!

My dd aged 9 months was sick all over some photo albums i was paying for the other day, the shop assistant said"has you baby just ben sick?" i was mortified but she had a baby the same age thank God so wasn't bothered. (It was the queue behind me i was ambarrased about while we all cleaned up the sick and i huffed and puffed "huh can't take her anywhere!"

Children - don't you just love them. Recently at Sainsbury's the cashier thought my milk (as in cartons - not breasts!) had leaked on the eggs - but I knew it was dd and just said it was O.K I think the spillage was from another carton in the fridge.

Just act breezy - it's not like you expected anyone else to clear it up.

Just tell your child to go easy on the lager before she goes on a bouncy castle in future - that was always my downfall.
