Who wants to take a guess on when my mum will remember it’s my birthday?

Lighthearted but in a sad kind of way.

My mother, notoriously useless in her role varies on her ability to remember it’s my birthday…so I’m running a light hearted sweepstake on what time she will send her happy birthday text message to me. Last year was 7.30pm, the year before was around 2pm.

As birthday girl I’ll get first guess. I’m going for 3.10pm.

@Choice4567 is a winner with the closest. 11.41am.

That’s bloody early for her.

For those who are saying it seems a bit unfair…I figured it was obvious from my post that there is a huge back story and my mother is utterly useless in all forms.

It's my birthday today too! My dad sent me some prints of photographs he took as a present and directed me which frames I needed to buy to fit them. The frames plus the customs fee for the prints cost me £82 total for my own present. I wish he would have forgot it's my birthday!
