[Misc] Mother’s Day 10 March

[Zeberdi]

In all the excitement of Europe this week, I nearly forgot it was Mother’s Day (UK) on Sunday. Not too late thankfully- Just ordered a lovely bouquet and scented candle online to be delivered on Sunday to a very much cherished Mum.

Happy Mother’s Day to Mums everywhere (and RIP those no longer with us).

 

[Klaas]

Jeez, thanks!
Despite the reminders on my calendar, and having already sent off a card, I STILL managed to forget to get on the flowers until I saw this post.
Done. Phew.

And, yes, Happy Mother's day to any NSC Mums out there, you're the best!

Finally got my Mum’s ashes (long story). She passed away on Mothers Day a few years back.

I shall be heading up to Lancing Ring on Sunday to finally see her off. If that’s the right phrase?

Weirdly feels nice to be doing something for her on Mothering Sunday after years of not being able to have a place to go to remember her.

I hope all get to spend time with / remember their Mum’s this Sunday.

Gotta love yer Mum, with us or passed.

Taking my mum for breakfast and then heading off to the game.

Did the same last year.

I was in a bit of a dilemma because my daughter & son in law normally invite me for the day, cook Sunday lunch, and a visit to a lovely garden centre.
My thoughtful girl had already looked up the fixtures and asked me if I would like to do that next Sunday instead so I don’t miss the match tomorrow. I just hope the game is worth it!

I’m taking my mum(77) and wife to the Forest game tomorrow. I’ll sit with my mum, and the missus will sit in my ST seat with our son. And then we’re off for a roast in Hove. 3 points please lads…..

It's my birthday which trumps mothers day. They need to choose a different day.

Non-football fan sister has arranged a lunch for all the family tomorrow.....some people never check fixture lists

Taking my Mum out for lunch today as I fly out to Italy tomorrow morning

My daughter and her partner are living at ours for the next few weeks and my son and his partner are coming down tonight to surprise Mrs Wz and take her out for dinner tomorrow - sorted

You’re 2 days too late. I won’t upset you by telling you the score.

Mrs B also has the birthday / Mothers Day combo tomorrow.

And do you know what?

I've not been able to find a single card that covers both off, so I'm going to have to buy TWO cards.

At least I don't feel so bad about missing next Thursday now, unless of course we now put on the greatest performance in our history, in which case you'll hear me cheering from the Italian Alps

Moonpig could have been a good option but it’s maybe a bit late now!

I met my parents this morning, gave Mum some lovely flowers, with some nice choc’s from our Dolomites trip.

The fact @Zeberdi put ‘Mothers Day (UK)’ has tickled me

Thought your Dolomites trip was two years ago

I found a solution by buying one of those cards that are blank inside, enabling me to craft my own bespoke message.

And to save killing further trees I also put "Happy Easter and Merry Christmas" in the card too. It's never too early, is it?

Mother's Day does my nut in. Due to Geography, we can only see one of either my mum or my wife's mum on the same day as a family which must piss one of them off. The kids are next to useless at remembering or organising anything so it might as well be wives day as well to all intents and purposes. Finally, this year it's got the Football thrown in which I've had to miss. One on Easter Sunday is a bit shit as well.

It's a day where it's like walking into a trap In classic "What could go wrong this year" I put the Mothers days card in the post on Wednesday. It hasn't arrived. Thankfully the flowers did.

Why - we have members from different parts the world on NSC - Mother’s Day in the States and in Australia for example is celebrated on the second Sunday in May.
