Hi Senn, yes giving money is the best idea as then people can get what they want. Giving vouchers is another good one too so they can buy in their favourite shops not bad going. Yes it's a pain we are not able to surprise our mums but giving money is the best and as you say is the thought that counts. I'm glad you had a good chill out day yesterday as I did. Glad you did a tape to a friend. Yes I had my medicine with chocolate cake in the afternoon and cookies with a cuppa. Then that aero mousse after the meat pie for tea and later a caramel bar finishing off with a hot chocolate before bed as usual. Today is just the same medicine. It's been lovely having my little nephew Jamie here but the weather has been cold and rainy so we have all been home all day had the best place. For tea it was chicken dinner yummy our favourite and yes one of those things we have on our list of things in common. I'm now ready for a busy night with the soaps. Oh yes, that version of Zanadoo was the one I was thinking of in the first place which is why I guessed at electric light orchestra. Hope you had a good day. Love Clare xxxx
