Don't,whatever you do,buy a shrug.

My elder daughter bought me one last year.

When I tried it on I looked the spit of old mother Riley.

Yes,I know that I have to be ancient to remember her,but I don't wish to look like her.

SueM go back and look at my other thread, loads of really good ideas. I would not like to risk not getting a present for your Mother, give her a nice surprise. Bless her.

That's your problem solved but my mother told me that she can't think of a single thing she wants or needs so she is telling the family not to get her anything. Wonder how she will feel if she gets nothing from us all on Christmas morning :-0
