...so I'm always planning ahead with cards and gifts and things. My family are a ferry ride and a couple of hours driving away, I don't see them often.

Christmas was done in September.

Guess what I did today? Out with a friend, she was buying Christmas presents. What did I buy? A gift for my mum for Mother's Day in March.

Now i have to remember I've bought it and where I've put it! 😆 oh and I'm 54 so no child!

😂 Get yourself a birthday/gifting cupboard! That’s what I have and it’s brilliant because I never forget where I’ve put pre-bought stuff 😏

You need a set drawer/cupboard/box in your house for gifts & a note in your phone with who you’ve bought for
