well said nanna

on my daughters wedding day i gave her new husband a tray saying the decisions of the mangment will always outway the opinions of the husband but i was joking he is the best son in law you could have xxxx

my sons just said what did i want for mothers day i said a bunch of daff is fine babes

Nanna thats how I feel about my kids and mothers day, the best part for me is seeing them and getting the cards they made. I don't need any fancy gifts just a hug and kiss off them. Jackiexx

Well Jackie, I don't think she deserves a card either, let alone give out present lists, good grief!!! The whole point is surely for children to show appreciation of their Mothers not be ordered to!!! Some deserve it and others don't, sounds like she doesn't, send a card...that is more than enough to show you at least thought of her! (but don't write what you think of her in it!!)....I like Joys ideas.....pmsl! I was lucky both my Mum and Mum-I-L were fabulous so never had this.....I am gobsmacked! If my boys (daughter never misses) send me a card I am smiling all day, they never remember or are so forgetful, but I do get a phone call saying 'Hello Ma, sorry I forgot, I feel really bad.....' off the most forgetful one....it means so much just to hear his voice, who needs cards and prezzies, they tell me they care all the time so I never miss out. Can't get a better prezzy than my children themselves.... Nanna-Moo ;-)))

well at least you are laughing now job done lol xxx

pmsl Joy im not having much luck with MIL's am I the ex one has joined GR and is evil and the current one phones me up and does my head in, if things don't improve I will have to start looking for an another OH but check their mums out first lol Jackiexx

What a flippin' cheek!! My Mum nags us 3 NOT to buy her anything, says she's happy with just a card! I went to see her last weekend and gave her a scented candle which she loved, but still 'moaned' that I had bought anything, lol!

Thanks all im glad im not just being a misery guts, I think I will just have to rise above it and just get her a bunch of flowers, if she's not happy with that tough lol Jackiexx

Joy im shocked that is a bit below the belt, what have the witches ever done to you lol

but think of the poor undertaker when she goes he s gonna have a hell of a struggle getting her in the box still wearing her witches hat

Not on that Get a lighter and set fire to the list firstly- Get a value card from Tesco and value flowers that should do then go to the cemetary with some lovely flowers for ya mam and tell ya mam how much you love her. catherine xx My mum been gone 10yrs-luckily my MIL is a good un.

pmsl Joy you crack me up lol

how about letting your children make her some nice cornflake cakes with laxative chocolate she will spend the day in the loo and not bother you at all lol only joking xxx

her bungelow was on fire last week and i got into trouble off the firemen for pushing her back in with a brush when they seen her they helped me lol xxx

Jackie,i never had those problems with my mother or mum in law who were both lovely. But i agree with the others ,a card is enough to say you havn't forgotten. If she keeps making comments like that ,she shouldn't even get a card,what a bloody cheek.Fred.
