Pokemon Mother's Day Edition
Posted by George Garner on 9th Feb 2022
This year I decided to set my mother a task ahead of Mother’s Day which in theory should be easy, but as you are about to find out, is far from it! The task is this, what is the name of these 10 Pokemon, easy right? Wrong.
We have come a long way since the days of old where in the Middle Ages, children who had left their families to work in domestic service were allowed to go to their home – or “mother” – church. This journey home morphed into a spring occasion for families to reunite, which eventually adopted the custom of children picking flowers on the way home as a gift to their mothers.
But Mother's day is often more than just a bouquet of petrol station flowers and some chocolate. It’s a day of celebration for all the hard work mum’s put in through the year and can lead to dire consequences if it's missed out of your calendar!
