i cant believe you actually took 20 quid
from some poor woman who thought her child had been Bulgered

maybe you could have haggled a bit

or threatened to slap the kid for an extra fiver

you say you didnt know what to do...

*belms*

maybe calling the police might have been a start - the mother probably did so about 1 hour and 50 previously

idiots as they are they might well have got the kid back to her slightly quicker than 2 hours plus

To be honest mate...
I didn't really get much choice, I said no (about five times infact) because she pretty much forced it into my hand.

As far as calling the police is concerned I didn't have a mobile on me and the nearest phoneboxes are off fargate so that was out of the question because the kid had obviously got lost on the fargate so his mother would still be around. Busy pedestrianised shopping street, usually police about but oddly for a Saturday there were none so I just walked up and down with him until we found her.

I don't even know why I'm justifying myself to be honest. It hardly seems worth it

*Edit*

And at what point did I say that I didn't know what to do? After I realised that his mum wasn't in the near vicinity (sp?) I went over to the city centre ambassadors...or jumped up security guards with radios but they were completely disinterested
