[Cloverjo]

Jeez! What is wrong with those people?

[pixie374]

They really have. Maybe they can take it off their £7k bill they will hopefully shortly receive...

[retrocop]

Absolutely Gobsmacked.These people should not be allowed to procreate and steal our oxygen. Morons. Send them the bill for £7,000 and have them imprisoned for failure to pay.

[sanmac]

What idiots! Imagine what is going to happen to this family once "social media" gets to know who they are, and that will most certainly happen.

[ladybirder]

Unbelievable. What an ungrateful pair of idiots. I bet they're keeping a low profile now.

[Ken4155]

Perhaps they should also be sued for child neglect? Obviously not watching their daughter closely enough or she wouldn't have drifted so far out to sea.

[agchristie]

^ yes, best policy would be to lilo? ;-)

[Ken4155]

That wasn't thunder rumbling you just heard, ag, that was a collective groan from all at AB Towers :-)

[brainiac]

This couple obviously have an inflated idea of their importance

[agchristie]

;-) as long as everyone is not too deflated!

[scorpiojo]

Please excuse me, alba.

Ag, did you see this?

[albaqwerty]

thanks Scorp, I knew there was a Q for ag somewhere, couldn't remember where I'd seen it :-)

Part of me hopes those parents will be mocked but the child left out of it, somehow.

Sorry to burst your inflatable unicorn.

[agchristie]

Scorpiojo, no I hadn't! Thanks!

Thanks alba for BA! ;-)

[marval]

No I wouldn't send them a bill. the parents should be very grateful.

They responded by saying they will pay the bill when the parents have paid for the £7000 rescue.

[albaqwerty]

ach well, it was fun whilst it lasted mamya :-) x

do wish BA purely meant best answer :-)))))

[Mamyalynne]

:-)

[Cloverjo]

Ah, mamya. The voice of reason.

It’s so easy to get caught up this kind of stuff.

[pixie374]

Glad to see that, mamya x and not really surprised... x

[Mamyalynne]

It rang a bell somewhere.
