Haha, 5LM and mickyc, I actually thought the same about this town. I don't charge if i'm not open, I don't feel right about it. But anyways, I had a family start in November after I had officially told everyone about my holidays in march. And recently I realized I hadn't told her yet. So I told her today, and we were chatting a bit about flights, etc. She acted really surprised to find out that she didn't have to pay while I was away! (even though it's in my policy) So it's possible that maybe attitudes are starting to change around here?
