Whatever we decide for S12's birthday - most important is that he has an enjoyable time.

In our current situation, a day trip together to a random location feels ambitious. A specific attraction/play/film/show would at least give focus.

I understand your reserve about overspending. If necessary we could always revert to the idea of celebrating separately, and I could ask my mum to pay towards an activity.

But it would be preferable to try to agree on something for the 4 of us, now that we've told him that's the intention.


Thanks for the vote of confidence. She obviously thinks I'm going to call her a selfish **** again.

And it was she that suggested spending well over a ton on travelling to London and going one or two events. I reminded her that she doesn't actually have a job. Sheesh!

Mind you. Even though I suggested joining up with them. I don't want to spend any more time with her than necessary.
