I often babysit for a lovely family. On Tuesday I was asked if I was busy Saturday because they were having a 60's themed party for the dads 50th birthday starting at 6PM. I said I was free and the mum said 'great see you then'
Saturday comes, I spend ages doing my hair and make up in 60s style and had trawlled charity shops for suitable clothed.
I turned up at the house at 6.20PM as I didn't think they'd want everyone turning up bang on 6PM.
I was greeted at the door by a very flustered mum and she said 'thank God we thought you weren't coming' and both parents flew out the door and got in their car.
It suddenly dawned on me that I'd not been invited and was actually babysitting!! I was mortified. When the parents rolled in at 1am the dad clocked I was in 60's gear and said 'you knew you were babysitting, right?' I was so embarrassed I said 'yeah of course, I thought it'd be fun to do 60s things with the kid's
