What are you buying your Mum this Christmas?
 
apologies to any member whose Mum is no longer with us :hug:

also if you are American or a subsidiary state like Canada or Ireland I mean Mom

well?

She's asked for a handful of things so I've been trying to pick them up as I go along the past 2 months...

The main present (well, it's nothing substantial, but I think it'll mean the most to her), is she wanted something made with lots of photos of us, her kids, grandkids, cats, etc., so I was going to get a calendar made for her... I would do a big canvas but it'd require photo editing and I think that sometimes ends up looking tacky/weird so I'd rather just use photos that exist and many of them...

And then:
- Some moisturiser/foundation thing she's run out of
- Mrs Browns Boys D'Movie
- Olay Regenerist stuff
- and maybe a pair of slippers too (haven't seen a pair she'd like yet, think she wants sort-of-Ugg ones)

a £12 waterfall cardigan, black and white.

I've grown to tolerate the TV show, and had to download the movie for her when it came out :laugh: it's not as bad as Miranda, but not something I'd choose to watch

Jordan. 08-12-2015 07:08 PM

A purse and a book

smudgie 08-12-2015 07:11 PM

My mother died years ago, but I still send a little present in the form of a cheque to the Sally Army in her memory every Christmas.

My presence should be enough, with a box of chocolates on the side.

King Gizzard 08-12-2015 08:00 PM

A bicycle I think, she's wanted one for ages, one with a basket and all that jazz

The only thing is where the logistics/where to hide it

Thanks Cherie! I'll take it back tomorrow :love:

Josy 08-12-2015 09:39 PM

I think boots are selling that for 45 atm Amy

Daniel-X 08-12-2015 10:04 PM

I think I'm getting her a set of little individual Jo Malone perfumes. Saw it for thirty pounds so I'll probably pay like twenty and get a tenner off my nana or something

Benjamin 08-12-2015 10:09 PM

I haven't got my mum a present or even spent Christmas with her since I was 15. :laugh:
