[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 711651, member: 41816"] My MIL is very... er... caring to small children and furry animals. I think this is a good quality, but it can be taken to excess. Individual Xmas presents to the cat, the dog and the goldfish could be interpreted as taking things a fraction too far. [COLOR=#404040] She is a lovely woman, so I am choosing my words carefully! Anyway, two years ago, she asked what I would like for Xmas. And I mentioned 3 things (scented candle, gift voucher or a book, all of which I knew she could source, and were reasonably priced). I was given a cushion, with a bad painting of a cat on it. The cat looks either constipated or grumpy, depending on the light. I try to keep it in the dark. The cat, dog and goldfish always get exactly what they ask for... ;)[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
