    The way I see it is she is going to accompany both kids. If you don't pay half then she could be miserable and leave your kid out and favour hers etc.
    It is blackmail but for the sake of my kid I would pay half to ensure he remained happy and excited :)

    Blackmail..... .....

    6 pages on my lovely simply because people post and ask I answer, they post I answer;) everyone has an opinion, ranging from pay, don't pay, cheeky mare to 1 person saying it was blackmail which I replied to blackmail? No don't think it's blackmail, your opinion differs from others and vice versa that is the way answers/ questions,replies goes,
    it doesn't stop/ drop until people ask no more questions which I've answered:D

    but it really doesn't have to be that way - you really don't have to reply to every single post, you really don't have to re-quote yourself, you really don't.

    Its like a carousel, round and round we go.

    If I don't reply I've been called a hell of a lot of mean names for starting a thread and not being courteous enough to reply with hollars of where is she? Why she not replying? Why why why?

    If I do reply it's OMG she's replying, it's going round in circles, why can't she just shut up?:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    If I say I'm not replying or thank you for your input or thank you this has been very much discussed please let it drop or im going to this or that uproar , oh she's moody, she's not grateful for our time to reply, who does she think she is, you can't tell me/ ask me what to do, oh look at her moody draws.

    A very long time ago when a very much loved long term poster was saying about the lengths of threads I posted come 3 or 4 pages it's done , most people have said , got some kind of thinking going on and no more is needed, I got the most thanks for that 1 post, once it's said its said.


    Once a thread is posted., even a year or so later it comes back up, there was one the other day that was on page 1 from 2009, must have come back up from putting associated words into the search engine.


    Can't win.

    I looked on the website and noticed that for many of the kids' activities it says "A parent or guardian is required to sign a disclaimer on the day (please be aware that no child can participate without completion) and remain on-site at all times.", nothing about the adult having to buy a ticket or take part. Is this the case for the one you've booked or does it specifically say that the adult has to buy a ticket and participate?

    Have I missed something? I've followed this thread and I don't remember OP saying where they were going?

    She said an Adventure Day booked with Red Letter Days but she didn't say which one, which is why I asked.
