Feel slightly p,d off at one of the mums at school.
She often asks me to bring her daughter out to her car along with my two year 2 children. she has two younger kids one aged 3 the other 9 months, plus DD in my DD's class, happy to do as no extra hassle, but last 3 times she's complained that me, my twins plus her DD are so slow to come out ( whilst she's sitting in car with her two youngest) it was pouring with rain today and the three of them were slow coming out, but I'm doing her a favour am I over sensitive?

Next time she asks you say "sorry, I'd be too slow" and walk on by.

go

Ha, good idea. Can you get your DC to master the slow motion walk (my DCs do this to the chariots of fire song) :o

Shock how rude!!

Next time, reply "I wish they'd hurry up too. It's freezing standing out here for ages." Maybe we should take it in turns?"

Tell her you'll give her a refund next time, and when she says she doesn't pay you, just look at her and wait for the penny to drop...

Tell her to get off her lardy arse and collect her own child!

How far away is the car? If she's year 2 she must be 6 or 7? Couldn't she make her own way to the car?
