It's my youngest's 19th birthday next Monday, we are going to see him at uni this Saturday and take him out for a meal and to the cinema. I suppose we are very honoured that he wouldn't prefer to be out with his friends, although he is going out with them on the actual night. At least, I thought we were honoured until I remembered that unless he agreed to see us he may have thought that he wouldn't get his presents!
This week every year is just dire for us, it almost bankrupts us. It's my Mil's and FiL's birthday (last Monday), then my stepfather's tomorrow, my mother's on Sunday, then my son's and of course not only is my BiL's next week but it ends with Mothering Sunday. So I come pretty low in the pecking order after that lot.
Scottish political mess. Is Devolution working?
