Stumped again
Without going overboard - Anybody got any good gift ideas for a 75yo Mum?
Dave,
We take mine out for a BBQ or picnic with all the kids, grand kids etc.
As for pressies its usually a CD and always champagne.
Besides a g banger i would choose somthing productivly uselfull and an item she will never leave home without.
Option 1
1)A garden gnome I give them to everyone
If there was anthing id want in the world it be THE garden gnome.
give them to your kids give them to adolecents infact a garden gnome is the worlds most favoured gift.
Last year i gave mum a garden nome doing cooking.
The year before that i gave mum a garden nome doing washing.
Even a big hit as a wedding gift
Icouldnt think of a more useful present can you.
You can even get her grandkids to paint it.
option 2
2)big mouth billy bass fish there allso so verstile and usefull i wouldnt leave home without one.
Completely skunked by the weather... looks like all wind abusers in WA will not need to be making excuses this sunday
Flowers, hug, peck on the check and a couple hours of your undivided attention.
If you really want to go overboard make her breakfast (make is the key word - not buy) - homemade scones a dead easy to make.
This is what I'll be getting mine.
It will just be on a card, with the software installed on her computer and all photos available to her.
I'll sit down with her, show her how to use it, then order it and bingo... It will be after Mothers Day, but it take a bit to organise it.

what would you get the woman who has as she puts it 'bloody everyfing'
i told her about elisabethbs' idea and she punched me in the jaw and told me to 'stop being such a bloody little homo'
this year i'm finally gonna put the strychnine in her morning rum
(...whats that mother.. you said if i was a good boy i could play on my computer box
i have been a good boy haven't i..)
Davmen, I only see My mum once a year or so cause of distance. Its always so hard to buy em something they really like,want,need
with out them telling you what they want.
THis year I going for another angle- I plan on getting a few photos enlarged and framed . hope it does the trick.........
with out them telling you what they want.
has already hijacked my mother for the day.
I am putting mum in a new kitchen... Of course i made her pay for it... But i'm installing it and mucking around with it... Does that count as a gift?
