Mine died a few years ago, so Happy Mothering Sunday wherever you are mother. My kids ma is not flavour of the year. Youngest lives here with me. She suggests he uses his Christmas money her mother gave him to help me pay the mortgage instead of her chipping in! The other is in India and has said he won't be heading her way when he gets back and would rather camp in a tent next to my boat. She was brilliant at being a mother when they were little, but I hope the thought crosses her mind today that she's not been great at it lately. If she reads this, which I doubt, she knows what I think, there's nothing new here.
