Loiseau Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Don't forget, chaps, it's the Fete des Meres this Sunday 29 May !The checkout girl in HyperU handed me a pink rose this morning; wouldn't have happened in Tesco I'm sure. (OK, I know UK Mothers' Day is a different date - but hey, speaking as a mum, I am quite happy to have two celebrations!)Angela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Lots of french supermarkets have done that for years. I don't do mother's day. Don't like it. If my kids want to say or do something nice, then they have another 362 days to do it! [Www] Such gestures would not be appreciated on my birthday or christmas day either, (no religion, but do like mid winter festivals!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneySuckleDreams Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 [quote user="idun"] 362[/quote] Discounting mothers day, do they have 2 days off then? or maybe 3 if it's a leap year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 My guess is Birthdays and Christmas may be the other two days ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Certainly are RH. LOL makes me sound like I like doing stuff on my birthday, but I don't usually and we are not great ones for present giving either. But my birthday is an excuse to get busy me and friends to go out and I like that. And christmas, well, I think that a good old nosh up, as in a family/friends get together, in mid winter is fine.
