      Mothers Day - UK

      Hi
      I have just realised that on Sunday 22nd March it is Mothers Day back in the UK.
      I thought I would post this so that no one in Oz misses the date, to tell their lovely Mums how special they are.
      Just off out to buy my Mum something special to post back to her.
      theforrests, ems and Beverley like this.

      Hi Susan,

      thank you, i got a bit of a fright, as we arrived here on mothers day last year and thought it was yesterday and we missed it. Thank goodness it isn't for another couple of weeks.

      Will be using moonpig.com again, we download a picture and personalise the card and send flowers with it for $25....bargain and definately worth its weight in gold for an easy day and no terrible phone calls saying we forgot.....they are great for anniversary, birthdays, weddings etc.

      Moonpig is great....or.....the really nice lady in the Adelaide Arcade Card Shop (oddly enough, in the Adelaide Arcade, just off Rundle Mall), stocks Mum's Day cards all year round, just so us Brits can send them in time. She also has Father's Day, so an all round good egg!

      Most good newsagents will be selling a small selection of UK Mothers Day cards.
