Precisely WMS!
Always turn their offer of extra hours into a positive for you. In addition, if you have PI insurance, you are likely invalidating that too and if you do have it, it will be because they have demanded it. So tell them you are happy to put in the effort provided that it's crystallised into a new contract that suits all parties then leave the ball firmly in their court. They will either take you up on it or not.
Either way, put out some feelers into the market and see what it's like. At best you will get another offer, at worst you may have some bench time. Whatever you do though remember, if you dither and cave in, it will the the slippery slope. If you are able to accept that it is fine also. As it's your first contract, you may also want to put down the loss as both part of being in business AND the cost of education. Welcome to contracting
