OK, the answer is probably yes but then I need to work out how to approach this...

I worked in my cousin's bar last night as a favour as staff had let them down & as such I wasn't drinking. A friend of mine posted on Facebook a couple of days ago saying that they were desperate for a taxi NYE but couldn't find one & could anyone recommend anyone. I text her and said if you're really stuck let me know and I'll pick you up after my shift. A conversation followed along the lines of "don't want to take advantage, are you sure?" etc and then she phoned mid afternoon just to check I really was OK with it. All good so far.

She mentioned giving me some money for it, I was expecting something like £10 to cover petrol, £20 if she were feeling generous but in all honesty it was more about not seeing a mate stranded in the early hours.

Anyway, come 2am I finally managed to get to them (my mates new boyfriend who I've not met was with her). When I dropped them off she said "Bob's got something for you, just take what he gives you" so I did, said thanks, happy new year etc and shoved it in my pocket.

When I've got home and checked there's a £20 note wrapped really tightly around some other notes and when I unroll there's £100!! My issue is that this is way too much and I'm not sure they even realise what they've given me as they were absolutely hammered a bit tipsy.

I want to give some of it back but don't know how to approach it, wwyd?

Sorry it's long, didn't want to drip feed & needed to give context!

Awww how lovely and it would seem not drunken generosity! Hope you spend it on a treat
