lucky for them i wasn't full so yes i took extra child - lucky i didn't have anything else planned for day !!!! wondered if i should've charged them more than standard rate but felt a bit awkward suggesting it they are very scatty family generally

Scatty being the understatement of the year! I am known to be scatty but I do know which of my children is being minded by whom! They are taking advantage of you, maximummy!

I'd still be asleep if someone arrived an hour early!

I would def charge extra, for child that wasnt meant to be there. Its a bussiness not friend

Well if you do, make sure you charge them for the text or put on expenses!
