Speak for yourself!!

I will pass on the smoothie, the rest would be fine.

I will also happily take your thornotons if you don't want them!

jdoe8 · 25/03/2017 15:24

Really? It seems like such a huge amount of food and sugar, I would feel sick after eating that

I agree op!

Why are Mother's Day gifts so crap?

Bluntness100 · 25/03/2017 15:32

Well I would be happy with that, but I'm generally happy with any gift i get, as for me, it's the thought that counts,,,Hmm

Wolfiefan · 25/03/2017 15:32

Sainsburys had a special display on for Mothering Sunday. Chocolate, gin and anti ageing cream! Grin

WonderMike · 25/03/2017 15:34

It'll be a challenge but I'd give it a fair go Grin

ilovesooty · 25/03/2017 15:34

I see the OP appears to have announced her controversial thought for the day.

And she can hardly speak for all mothers.

Funnyonion17 · 25/03/2017 15:37

I've asked for a nice box of Lindor. That will do me!

Ragdoll545 · 25/03/2017 15:38

Bring it on Grin

HoneyDragon · 25/03/2017 15:38

I have access to a buffet for breakfast tomorrow so intend to hit those targets op.

SparkleTwinkleGoldGlitter · 25/03/2017 15:40

Speak for yourself.

Dd is only a baby but if dh wants to bring me that in bed tomorrow from dd, i am sure I will struggle on and eat it -it's a tough challenge but I'm happy to do it!

EllenJanethickerknickers · 25/03/2017 15:41

Said no mother ever!

Iamastonished · 25/03/2017 15:42

DD painted me a lovely picture.

APlaceOnTheCouch · 25/03/2017 15:43

There's not a stopwatch so you don't have to eat it all at the same time.I'd be quite happy with it.

I really want cake now, and I know it's unlikely it will feature in my breakfast tomorrow Sad

jdoe8 · 25/03/2017 15:44

*I agree op!

I think we maybe on our own! I think its all about massive amounts of low quality stuff.

A painting sounds lovely.

Yabu. My dc are beyond excited about Mother's Day. I'm sure I'll get something like that and I'll be thrilled.

muttrat · 25/03/2017 15:45

I agree OP.

I don't want fucking prosecco either. The

Pinkheart5915 · 25/03/2017 15:45

Speak for yourself. I'd give it a go

If you couldn't eat it all it's ok OP I don't think someone from Lidl will be standing behind you forcing it down your throat you will be allowed to eat it later in the day.

The photo shows the portions used in the YouTube video so hardly excessive and the chocolates Mum probably ate later as they weren't breakfast they were a gift with the flowers & watch

WeAllHaveWings · 25/03/2017 15:45

I'm getting a box of choc (have hinted at Ferraro Roche as spotted them in Tesco and haven't had for years, hope they are still nice!) and bottle of cheap rose. Wouldn't say no to scrambled eggs on toast and a smoothie!

Only thing I wouldn't want is the cheap shite watch.

muttrat · 25/03/2017 15:45

I want a book and a bottle of whisky!!

Etak15 · 25/03/2017 15:45

I would love a buffet breakfast and to not have to sort everyone else out first before I get to eat it!!

BillSykesDog · 25/03/2017 15:48

It's an advert. They're suggesting a fairly wide selection of products so the maximum amount of people see something they fancy. Not dictating a compulsory list.

HemanOrSheRa · 25/03/2017 15:49

We are going out for late lunch tomorrow but I'll give that little lot a good go at about 7pm Smile.
