The all new "Blimey, it's Mother's/Mothers' Day" thread

[Grumpmeister]

Have not received anything.  However, eldest helped with shopping yesterday and then cleaned my car (his standard is higher than mine too).  He is also my technical expert, clothes critic/music critic/ behaviour critic, chief hairdresser (shut up Barman) and keeps a weather eye on his brother for me.  I have good things from him all year and not just on one day

BM is probably just jealous as the best he can get in that regard is a quick buff up with Turtle Wax.

Oh... I haven't seen him without his bucket.

My Elder Daughter tends to send me things like small teddy bears with "Number One Dad" on them.
One year she sent a large but very light box. On opening it a helium balloon floated up with a small teddy bear attached. She is 39 FFS!
SWWLTBO always makes sure the children give me chocolate ~ I am diabetic so she gets to eat it

Be grateful for the lack of mental scarring

Oh Eldest has just handed me a card.  By Nicholas Verrall 'La Venise Verte, France'  cos he didnt like the cards with Mothers day on and he liked this picture.  

 

Honestly!  

Anyhow, youngest has now surfaced and just handed over another card.  So all boxes ticked ... but it really wouldn't have mattered.  

You are one extremely lucky teddy there Gip.
They all sound delightful.

Take a pat on the back for all YOUR hard werk over the years.


Must admit, my two sprogs are pretty decent to their mother. It's just me they save all their abuse and nastiness for it seems.

Their father is very strict and so I always look like the good one so cant take any credit at all. But thanks and yes I feel I am very lucky.

Would your lads say that too?
