Thought I’d come on as I have no idea what to get my Mum (or Dad who’s just had his bday). Mum has no hobbies, doesn’t really watch series so dvds no good, doesn’t wear pjs to bed, just don’t know what to get.

Argh, too many uses of the wrong word in the same post Shock

LizzieSiddal · 16/12/2017 07:46

A fit bit.

UnbornMortificado · 16/12/2017 07:51

Stupidly expensive Liz Earl skin set. Token box of Thornton and some scratchcards.

We've had a rough year though and she and my younger sister (also been spoilt to death) have been a godsend.

She still is, I'm finishing the year with pneumonia and pleurisy. She's took my washing pile (I have 3 kids including a baby) to do so I can rest up a bit.

I proper love my mam.

I've bought my mum

A kindle fire
A poster of Enrique Iglesias - she loves him and was gutted when she went into a music store and they didn't sell any because 'he's just not that big anymore'
I'll also get her some nice smelly stuff, some Turkish delight, liquorice all sorts and put some books on the kindle. Maybe a candle.

I'm looking for ideas! My mum likes little bits to open (much like me) so I'm going to do her a Christmas stocking for under the tree (parents always come to us for Christmas Day) So far I have got her fluffy socks and a handcream set. I am also thinking I'll get her the new Lisa Jewell book, a fancy scarf and a Swarovski bracelet. I'll also put some nice chocolates and maybe and Irish Coffee set in.
