- Grandmas 90th birthday present - any ideas??
- brothers birthday April
- Dads birthday April
- Mothers day

on the plus side i have spent less than £20 this week:j - This is definitely down to joining the challenge - though next week it will have to be higher

Grandma's 90th birthday....I think that the greatest gift you can give to her is your time.....at that age she has everything that she needs or wants. Maybe some daffodils and how about a cake that you have made?

brothers birthday ...itunes voucher

Dads birthday as Grandma above minus the flowers....

Mothers day as Grandma above minus the flowers cos they rocket in price...but a tatty ted or summat....or book token/cd etc...

excellent prezzie advice
didnt think of itunes voucher for my brother either! love the idea of making my gran a cake -also thought might put some family pics into an album for her too xx

Hiya

Last year I grew some lovely plants, bought some nice vases from Ikea and hey presto! Personal gift! The vases were only £1 something each and I gave ppl plants to match their personal tastes. They were all received well .

I had my Curves induction today then a workout. Planning to go on Monday...
