Posted March 13, 2009 My mum won't be here during Mother's day, bit annoying. But I'll be buying her some flowers and probably some vouchers for waterstones, she's very into reading at the moment! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 13, 2009 Ehhhh, I don't think we have Mother's Day until somewhere in... May or something. At least I hope so, otherwise I really didn't know about it. X3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 13, 2009 It was my mum's birthday last week... I got her a massive expensive bunch of flowers. I did, however, forget to send her birthday card 'til yesterday, so she'll get that and be all perplexed and stuff! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 13, 2009 I usually pick up the usual chocolates, which are usually the best ones i can find. And i always pick up an excellent card for her as well, she always comments on how good i am at choosing cards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 13, 2009 Its a pain, within four months its my mother's birthday, christmas and mother's day but then I'm stuck as to what to get as I don't want to repeat things. Anyway so yeah, im stuck. As I tend to be. Plus I don't have much money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 13, 2009 My mum asked me to order Heartburn on DVD for her, which I could tie into a mother's day present. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 13, 2009 Seen as though it's her birthday in the same month it'll be just a birthday card from me. I never understood giving aunties anything and nor do I understand that every year we've given my grandma a card. She is not my mother. Why do I have to giver her a card? *sigh* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 13, 2009 It was my moms birthday last week too. So unfair. I just got her a card for that though as shes back home in brum and im down here in bournemouth so, i am exempt from present giving :p I'll be visiting on the 25th though so i need to get the choccies for then. The card will have to suffice for the actual day. If i lived with her i would do other nice things instead though. Lke make her breakfast in bed, clean the house and make her dinner. Much nicer than a present. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 13, 2009 My mum is quite difficult to buy for, so I've got her some chocolates, Flipper Critters - a Nintendo DS pinball game - she has almost every other handheld pinball game, and a crosswords book. We'll probably go out for a meal on the Saturday, as it'll be less busy, and I'll do the washing up on Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 13, 2009 I won't be seeing my Mumsy until about...I dunno, maybe a month's time. So, I'm gonna hold back on this and get her something when I go home. Think it'll be better that way. What to get her, though. Hmm, I'm going to stay away from those traditional Mother-gifts - the giftbox set which contains candles, bath stuff, and smelly stuff. Perfect for Mother's Day, Christmas and Birthdays. Hahahaha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
