You should get her and sky+ The Apprentice. Unless she's just around the corner of course.

How old is she and what is her route like? If the route is not well lit and dodgy I would go even if my DD was in her late teens.

I think I'd go but can you record The Apprentice?

I think irrespective of her age the nice thing to do would be to nip out and pick her up!

Well if she was attacked in the dark or caught pneumonia in the rain, how would you feel that you had put a TV programme and alcohol before your daughters well being!!!

Have double gin when you get back?

it's not really dark, just really cloudy and rainy. i think you need an infection to catch pneumonia, not wet feet.

next week i'll make her take an axe with her, then i can stay home and have gin.

You know the all-purpose Norks answer
"be kind whenever possible. It is always possible"

You are allowed to drive in your PJs

Drink the gin THEN get her. The drive will be more fun. Have never seen the apprentice so not sure how it might compare.

Encouraging OP to drink and drive? Not even funny as a joke.

Uggs in the rain will be smelly!

You are allowed to drive after a few units you know?

Um...I am not in favour.... I get completely lightheaded and lacking in judgement after one glass of wine. Seriously. I don't drive so there is never an issue. But I am very very sensitive about this, as a dear friend of mine was killed by a drunk driver. So I don't like jokes about it - particularly with spirits involved.

Anyway, I am sure that no one would drink gin and then drive.

I'm sure you are allowed about three units?

Maybe I should slink off to a special place for people who are a danger to society Blush
