When is Mothering Sunday? It varies year to year, and Mother's Day in America is not the same as the UK's Mothering Sunday.
Answer
How do I know that Mothering Sunday in the UK will be Sunday 26th March in 2017? Because restaurants are sending me offers by email.
Stories
I heard from the cafe at Cobbs Farm shop in England.
Tips
Enter important dates in your calendar on your laptop or mobile phone. Add a second date a week or more earlier to remind yourself to book a lunch, a card, or flower delivery, or book a last minute holiday.

Last Minute Cards
Need a card? 123 Greetings online, very handy if you forget and need to send something instantly. I particularly like the Happy Birthday with animation and c cappella (like a Barber Shop quartet - four male voice with no accompaniment).

I also liked the card called Beak Boys reminiscent of the Beach Boys.

You can send a birthday or anniversary e-card with a customised message such as the venue for the lunch or a weekend away or holiday. Just tell the recipient to keep the date or dates free, and say details will be in the card.

You can set the card up to be delivered at the right time, local time for the recipient, even if you are on a different time zone.
