What are you buying for your MUM or MIL ?

[RTKangaMummy]

please give me some ideas

A nice top and necklace.

Mum - new dressing gown and smellies from The White Company

MIL - Good Food mag subscription for her birthday (tomorrow) and tickets for the Edinburgh Tattoo for Xmas

Both will get a photo calendar

Joint present for parents of a bronze carb for their garden. DC's are giving Mum a cookery book and a voucher from the loacl fish shop. PIL are getting a book.

Have bought my mum this she loves wallowing in the bath.

Am getting my mil a nice scarf, posh one.

Love the voucher from the fish and chip shop - that's brilliant!

Mum -musical tickets
MIL -digi photo frame pre-loaded with heaps of grandkid pics!

Stuck on FIK though if anyone has any ideas!

Ooops meant FIL!!

Plus this year's school photo of course!!

My mother would kill me if I gave her a voucher from the fish and chip shop, tis the local fresh fish to buy shop

PMSL many apologies read that completely wrong !!!!!

MIL - Kielhs hair stuff, PJ's, slippers and a cook book

Mum - Pashmina, Perfume, Chocs

Both will be getting photo calendars and framed pics of dc's

ooooooooooh thanks for all the ideas

Actually my Mum & Dad would love a voucher from Fish & chip shop or the local fish shop

I am liking the pashmina idea ~ haven't given her one of those before

where are you getting it?

Kangaboy always buys her jewellery

MIL- goat from Oxfam. She will hate it

Mum and Dad are having a theatre voucher between them because mum has recently been diagnosed as diabetic and is feeling a bit low.

MIL is having a new set of dictionaries and crossword dictionaries because I am fed up of her trying and failing to use her crappy set whenever we are there. I also dislike it when she calls me to ask me about crossword clues.

Joint presnt for MIL and FIL is vouchers for the theatre and exactly the sam for my mum and dad.

I have neither
But I imagine they are a darn sight easier to buy for than Dads/FIL. I have four men to buy presents for - nightmare!

sadly no MIL to buy for though dh's aunt's getting a rather nice brooch

mum's getting dark brown leather gloves and a nice scarf, both from M&S but I'm waiting in hope that there'll be a 20& off day...

Jamie Oliver in USA cook book. We get her a Jamie book every year as she loves him. And she just so happens to be living in USA so she will especially love it this year!

A framed photo of her new grandson, and her granddaughter together.

Probably something silly for her stocking like gel handwarmers for the snowy new mexican winters (well it snowed one year), and a tea towel with map of devon on.

Our company!

She insists we do not buy her anything. She has everything she wants and needs and has to take it back to USA with her so no point buying big. Family all coming too so she will have all their tat to take back too.

taking my mum clothes shopping as thats what she wants.

for MIL haven't the foggiest yet.

My dad was easy a couple of DVDs he wanted and the rubik 360 puzzle - so far.

FIL a falconry day.

Mum and Dad - board game and a cordless phone and a CD each. (Mum cannot taste or smell anything following an accident some years ago so I'm always a bit limited as to what she will appreciate!)

MIL - nothing (Jehovah's Witness)

(MIL that is, my dear mum is not with us)

muppets oh my friend did a falconry day this year for his 40th birthday. He absolutely loved it and has got some great pictures from it.
