My childminder has DS every Thursday and Friday while I go to college, before the Christmas break I had a chat with them and told them that I returned to college in the first week of the new year (today) and they have a schedule from my college (as they pay the fees) telling them how much they are being paid and what for.
So this morning I was sat here at 8am waiting for them to come and pick DS up
I waited half an hour (they are sometimes 10-20 mins late and I don't mind) and then rang to see if they had forgotten. Turns out that they have it written down that he doesn't go back till next week, no problem its a mistake we are all human, but I then got lots of huffing and puffing at the end of the phone "Oh I don't know what we are going to do then" "I have other children to pick up now" "I'm sure your not back at college till next week". I repeated that no I was back today and reminded them of the print out from college. I was then told "Oh I will see what I can do, I will be down to pick DS up as soon as I can"
I'm still waiting
