You made me laugh, ETO! That is exactly the same with us. Dads are the best :T. The only way we get to pay is if we are sneaky and manage to do it before he actually asks for the bill .

We've done that too, snuck away and asked for the bill. Before my dad's realised what's happened.

£29.46/£30 to declare, just about managed to stay in budget. It's funny how you think it's all going fine and then something can come along and tip things nearly over the edge.
