What
to do when you forget to send a Mother’s Day card to your Mum?
Imagine this scenario:
London, England. It’s 8:00 pm on a Saturday and you
see somewhere – Internet, TV, a newspaper or a magazine that the following day
is Mothering Sunday; a day that falls on a different date each year (just like
Easter with which it is connected) but for the English it usually happens
sometime in March. A busy and sometimes scatterbrained male like me can easily
overlook such an important date and find himself in the dog house. You see, I
say “male”, because the female part of the population has the rather annoying
habit to watch out for such things like birthdays and stuff. Anyway! To someone
like me, an English male who has had a stressful week at work, who has had to
do overtime on Saturday and who then finds himself in the above stated awkward
situation, I’ll give the following piece of advice: just follow the steps
below:
·
Don’t panic!
· Take
a few deep breaths!
· Get
out your credit card!
· Go
on the online florist site!
·
Order a bunch of flowers and send them to Mum!
Job done.
