Problem solved. If the husband is taking his mother's side, let him go.

How does anyone know whether or not they have sent cash?

Great review. We have tried them all but no longer buy any shortbread. My daughter makes the best, taught by a very elderly Scottish great-grandmother (friend) not long before her death. My daughter makes thousands at Christmas time - they are the most appreciated gifts.
