You are about about to pull into a busy petrol station forecourt to fill up your Mummywagon.

Do you :

A) Unbuckle all five under 8's and drag them across the forecourt, dodging traffic in order to pay. You can never be too careful these days.

B) Leave the children in the car and post on MN later wearing a flameproof suit to ask if you did the right thing.

C) None of the above, your DH always fills up the car for you .
