    Default feeling really poorly

    Sorry tmi, but I've had to dash to loo twice & been sick in the last hour... Came on really suddenly out of nowhere!

    Have tried to contact both parents for the los I have here today with no joy.

    I've sent them all into the garden (I can still see them) to keep them away from me. But how long do I leave it not being able to get hold of anyone?!

    I would use the same timescale that I use for sick children. I would give parents an hour to be contacted to make arrangements to collect and after that if unable to contact parents then emergency contacts to be contacted to collect. If you class this as an emergency - which it may end up being if you are at the beginning of something nasty - only you know. Get well soon.

    Yes she has, but as they're only at the end of my garden they keep sneaking in to see what I'm doing!

    They are being collected at 2:30.... Only 4 hours after my original text of not feeling well.... May as well of just carried on for the other 2 hours & not lost pay!
