Should petrol money and accommodation be charged?

Agree, is A used to everyone just 'loving" her bring dc C along and saying how much joy they bring to things...

Team B.
A and C are arseholes.

So is C A's (adult) child? That's what the dynamic sounds like. And A is bringing them along because for whatever reason, C doesn't fare so well on their own.

If this is the case, I'd be surprised if the holiday isn't changed as a result of C coming along. Maybe not intentionally, but A appears to put a big emphasis on C and their wellbeing, so is likely to prioritise them to Bs cost. Either way, the holiday is now for three people, three people should share the cost of it. If A doesn't want C to have to pay, they should cover their cost.

But who are a and c? Spouses? Parent and child? Feel c is either dm or overly loved child?

So if the holiday park aren’t going to make up the double bed where do they think the 3 guests are sleeping? all 3 on the sofabed?!
FFS just give B her money back and A & C go away together…

So person B seems to perhaps have some money issues - she's trying to shave costs where possible with the bedding? But still you think maybe B should pay for C's holiday? A and C are being incredibly tight here. In terms of the holiday not being what C chose, when she doesn't have to go and if she wants to she needs to suck up the choices other made and pay the £60 for her share. To do anything else would be really unreasonable.

3 people each should pay 1/3 each and 1/3 petrol money too. It's obvious.

Why shouldn’t C pay?

If A and C live together, is C bringing food as well, or is A?

So if you arranged to go away with a friend and then she said to you that her 27 year old was very upset because someone had attacked his Minecraft village and so he could not bear to be alone for a week so could he come with you two you would just be fine with it?

Or if your friend's husband was upset about something that he would not mention and could not stand to be without the friend for a week you would be OK with him coming along with you bit not paying?

No person C should not pay are people always this petty.

Agree...Team B😆

You say that like it's a bad thing 😱 NOT to want to fund a dramatic free loader?

So C has manipulated A in to coming on the holiday then A has manipulated B into paying for it but you think B is unreasonable for not wanting to pay for some beds to be made? £20 as obviously C couldn't be asked to pay for anything at all.

Person B likes to save money wherever possible

What! Rather than subsidise the holiday of someone who can't deal with being alone for a week? Shocking.

As an aside this sounds like a terrible holiday.

But they have the joys of person c, and reading through the thread I can absolutely see why A leapt at the chance to support C through the trauma that they of course won't mention .. and B just of course had to delight in paying for them to come on the hols!

They are taking their own food, but I was similarly wondering if they would debate sharing the used teabag.

At this stage, I would pay the full costs to be allowed to not go.

Agreed this grim.

Better a wet weekend at home than an atmosphere in a caravan and no booze or nice food to liven things up.

Christ on a bike, this all sounds like a bloody miserable holiday. Emotional blackmail, squabbling over bed linen, and not even any wine/crisps/ chocolate to dull the pain.

Agree …quite glad I am working this weekend!

if I was person B and a third person was invited along (assuming not asked first and able to say no), I'd probably be telling person A what to do with a third of a caravan.

I must say, it's making me feel very cheerful about my dull plans for the weekend. Imagine being stuck in a caravan with A, B and C arguing over every teabag.

Why not ask person C to pay the £40 linen fee and the £40 fuel cost, which would mean they’ve paid almost as much as what persons A & B have paid for the caravan.

Well got to find a way to make b look unreasonable?...

"No. Not all. Just person B. Person B likes to save money wherever possible."

So why on earth is there any question about C paying their fair share? B is going to be royally pissed off if she doesn't.

I'm feeling sorry (slightly) for B- they knew it was an inevitability that C would have to come, because C doesn't want to be on their own- so basically that's not really a choice a B, is it. It's emotional blackmail from C, which A is happy to allow, and B basically gets no real choice without sounding like a heartless bitch. B didn't want to lay for linen, so I assume they were always planning to take their own linen, so surely then it doesn't matter if the main bed isn't made up, because they were never going to pay. So their option is the double with their own bedding, or a single and pay their share of £10? I'll stick with, C is an emotional manipulator, A, is happy to be manipulated, B is being a tight arse over the linen, and c should be paying because they interjected themselves on a holiday they were never invited to, and probably planned on all along..........and that A & B should probably not plan anything similar again........
