I know, totally pathetic question. He's hopeless. He's 51 and single (oddly enough...) and has just asked me what to get mum but on-line as he doesn't do shopping... (he does work long hours).
Now, I am the Xmas Coordinator around here and have been for years. Everyone comes to me, everyone being my family (DSs being 10 and 12), mum and DB. It's not a problem, but this year has been in its latter weeks a bit difficult as my work has spun out of control (our CT and MRI scanner burnt down and now we are working all hours to try and get on top of out of control waiting lists before Xmas!).
So, really, it'd be really helpful if this could be a bit 'light hearted', with 'proper' suggestions, not 'Deal with your DB/ you're a doormat/ it's not your problem (cos, in the big picture, it will be. Really. It's the family dynamic and I am too exhausted to deal with it this year)' type stuff, if you'd all be so kind.
He'd spend about £20-25.
Your non-judgemental thoughts would be really appreciated!
