    Question Should I or shouldn't I??

    I'm wondering....would it be bad to walk my kids to the club for the raffles?
    I have no car (again!) & live in a quiet little town, but its dark & they don't finish til about 9.
    The club is 2 blocks away. I'm leaning towards no...but if it was summer & still daylight I would.
    I'd like to take them out for dinner & maybe score some meat at the same time, lol, but I'm just not sure about the being dark & walking thing....

    i would go, i am sure the kids would love to go out for dinner, plus like you said you might win a tray of meat. its always nice to go out with your kids and it makes the walking home fun, you get to talk about all different things. i dont see it being a bad thing at all. good on you for wanting to go with your kids i think its sweet. we are going to the club tomorrow night for the raffles and dinner, dd is so excited she cant wait to go lol

    They would love it - it will be exciting for them. Only trouble is if you do win something that you can't take them into that part of the club to claim it - unless it's only our club that keeps their prizes in the bar area LOL. It's only two blocks and if you're worried you wont be able to see, take a torch like Lulu said.

    I have taken my kids to our local club via pram and a torch - about 300 metres they thought it was very exciting ....

    Yay We went, the kids had a ball & I won a huge tray of stir fry meat!
    It wasn't seeing that was the trouble, it was the bad reaction from others when I tried once before. Because it was dark, then I was going to a friends place after.
    Anyways...the walk home was ok for the first half...but 8.30 is too late for Jaz, she was grumpy by the end of it.
    We did good Thanks everyone. I ended up ringing a friend who said she does it all the time, coz until this year she didn't have a car or license. So that was enough to make up my mind, lol.
