Hello Julie......can you tell us what happened.....

Don't lie to her.

Tell her straight ... and kindly, but tell her.

You can't get yourself stressed out this way.

So Julie ... out of curiosity - what did happen today?

And dont go soft as its not going to rain tomorrow its going to snow!

That will make driving slower and more hazardess anyway without the inconvenience of going out of your way. I think shes a cheeky mare.

I catch the bus every day and dont live in town so the bus only runs twice an hour (when it runs) - I have a colleague who occasionally gives me a lift - but I would never dream of asking for one - she has been known to toot as passing if shes going my way to offer a lift if im waiting for the bus.

I think you have to be up front and tell her "sorry its just not convenient for me to offer you transport on a daily basis, its out of my way and I have other commitments that come first".

What a cheek she has and I bet she doesn't offer petrol etc..

Some folk arnt backwards in coming forwards ,as my Mum used to say .

tell her you wont be able to make it a you have to run an errand first

If you don't be honest and say no you will kick yourself

Being absolutely honest here...........my logical sensible side would be telling me not to pick her up....................I would have to ring to tell her that and just know that I'd end up taking her to and from work everyday!!

Too soft for my own good sometimes :(

I would say that I offered you a lift because it was raining on that/those occasions - however I am afraid that I cannot offer you transport on a regular basis due to family commitments!

I once had similar with a young lad at work..
He got to the point where he'd just follow me and get in the car after work!!!!!

I decided enough was enough one night and legged it after work, jumped into the car and screeched off - much to the amusement of my collegues!!!
Eventually (after i'd done it for a few days) he got the message!!
PMSL

Personally i'd NOT pick her up, then when i saw her in work i'd say i had a new phone number and didn't get the message!!

LOU XXXXXXXXXXxxxxxxx

just say you cant pick her up in morning ,then say during the day you have somewhere else to go,after work,,,,,,,,,,,,,you obviously arent happy with this so tell her !!,,,,,,,,,**,youll have to ,get the bus love,**

If she's waiting at your car tomorrow night (that really would be a liberty!) Just tell her you're going the opposite way!!

Oh Julie....lol......I can see the headlines now....

Good Samaritan runs over Passenger.....

Cheeky sod ain't she.

If she texts you again,tell her you have to go for petrol/diesel first so you will be about 5 minutes late into work cos of the traffic.

yer thats me plan just hope I can keep a straight face as I keep laughing at what I could say need to be diplomatic bet she at my car before I am tomorrow night got visions of riving off and she taking a run and jump for bonnett..lol..cheeky cow

I would just ignore her text, and as you say, just say 'see you at work in the morning'. She'll soon get the message. Cheeky mare lol

Sorry Julie I deleted because Easter Bunny already had suggested you ignore the text message....

.....at least that would give you time to prepare what you are going to say.....

ignoring her text OH thinks its a cheek he says ignore her text and say see you tomorrow when I leave work ..I'l have me running boots on tomorrow thru that carpark...hope it not raining

That's an idea too Julie, inconvenient, but shows her you are not there for her convenience......

think I'L just get bus from now on it would be easier
