Everyone is just trying to be Happy.....So lets help Them.
I have never been asked this, either, we have a spare room, bed is always made up, clean and fresh, grandkids will be coming soon (half term) I used to stay at my daughters after a night shif, because it was only 10 miles away to crash, rather than a 47 mile drive home,I used to take a duvet and pillows and have grandsons bottom bunk, but then I "shared" with my grandaughter so didnt bother. Weve also got plenty of spare duvets, and pillows.
