[highland fox]

If people want to spoil their Mum and buy her gifts etc then fine if you don't then you shouldn't be made to feel guilty etc.Its entirely your own choice,far too many busy bodies about

Aye I did:icon_redf I blame this laptop,you need a hammer to work the keys

It is common sense really.

I'm sure most Mothers just want to spend this day being appreciated, not lavished with expensive gifts and cards just because Clintons tell us to do so.

As Lazzer and mg have pointed out, not everybody is fortunate enough to be in the position to celebrate this day, so those that are should cherish it.

Paid for some delivery flowers for my Mum on Friday as I wasn't going to see her till today. My Mum really appreciated them, that much; she ended up giving them to her Mum, ungrateful bitch!!

'Aunt and Uncles Day'

Aunts' Day with compulsory expensive presents does sound good though...

Ironing?? Youre married!!

I very rarely do Mr H's ironing; he's perfectly capable of doing it himself.

As a special treat to the mother of my children I didn't comment once about the absolutely dire cup of tea she made me this morning - or the disgusting and barely digestible supper she cooked.

I'm all heart.

I think it was invented by the American Greetings Card Association many years ago. Won't be long before we also have 'Childrens Day', 'Aunt and Uncles Day', 'God Parents Day' and 'Neighbours Day' cards too just to keep the money flowing in for the card suppliers.

In saying that, mothers shouldn't need a card to know you love 'em.

Mother's Day might have been (although it is on a different Sunday in the USA) but Mothering Sunday on the Sunday 3 weeks before Easter is a centuries old GB church tradition.
