I really hankered after the colcannon Paul! Did she eat some of everything. Did she have indigestion afterwards? M

I'm not surprised she was impressed - I certainly would have been. You deserve a pat on the back!! Kath. x

Well, my mum was really impressed with all that and she asked for a copy of the menu to send to her brother! Good thing none of our family came from Kentucky or she would have had to settle for a Bargain Bucket!

Good idea Gerri - as long as they are only photocopies. Or even laminated print outs of census pages. I think this is such a lovely idea Paul, my mother would have been thrilled with your idea. Unfortunately she is no longer with us. Kath. x

Dont forget the Table mats!......Laminated birth/marriage certs. Her Mothers? Have a lovely day :-)) Gerri x

Can I please adopt you as my son, and come for lunch??? I would be very glad to have such a thoughtful son. Kath. x

Paul - what a wonderful gesture. Hope your mum's not driving.......Beer AND cider lol. My eldest daughter is (apparently) coming here today (she said 9:00 - I got up early!!) I'm going for the take-away lol maggie

Oh Paul... sounds lovely. Have you room for one more lol Jean x.
