Mum told me last weekend that they looked into getting me a subscription for my favourite magazine. They know I love it - even if it's generally considered trashy - and they also know HM was sniffy about the fact I felt I could afford it, mostly because he thinks it would be a waste of money even if I had pots of it. End result is that I haven't bought it for 2 months now.

They looked into it, but it was too expensive (because they'd feel obliged to spend the same money on my sister & brother). I was so grateful that they'd even thought about it.
