Thanks for the vote of sympathy Elmo re: MIL - I once took a bath at 8.30pm on Christmas day just for some kind of distraction from the mind numbing tedium and silence.

I call it The House of a Thousand Sighs.

Nit Shampoo and Germaloids - bet you smell dreamy.

Tortington · 23/04/2010 16:50

dh can't keep his hands off me, he thinks the'oooooh' pose i strike whilst trying to sit down smoothly, particularly sexy

pedrothellama · 23/04/2010 16:51

Seriously you have to experience this house to believe it - I also never knew that Aunt Bessie had such a wide range of products - when you see ALL of them on the dining table at once it is quite overwhelming.

Also while I think about who has the recipe for REALLY watery gravy and where can I buy the wine that strips paint?

Is it 5.33pm yet?

SoMuchToBits · 23/04/2010 16:53

Pedro, can't you take your own wine (and make sure it gets served in preference to MILS)? Your MILs sounds like my idea of hell!

pedrothellama · 23/04/2010 16:59

Somuchtobits - DP and I were as cunning as foxes and hugged ourselves at that idea - we turned up triumphant with three really, really, really scrummy bottles of plonk.

The old witch thanked us and put them in the back of the cupboard with the other really, really, really scrummy bottles of plonk she had been given over the years and then served up the crap she had bought!!

I got a little bit 'tired and emotional' that afternoon and ripped DP's fecking head off in the car on the way home.

Not really - he is a total sweetheart but he acknowledged my 'displeasure'

Dita - how many glasses have you had?

SoMuchToBits · 23/04/2010 17:01

Gah! That's no good then pedro. Is there some way you could bring it, open it as soon as you enter the house and plonk it down on the table. Surely she wouldn't be able to refuse to serve it after you had opened it?

ditavionteased · 23/04/2010 17:05

your #MIL drinks the good stuff when she's on her own you know.
custy can picture the exact face and pose which is a bit too scary for me.
I am now opening it, had a coffee, going to send dd's to bed in 5 mins they are proper doing my nut in.

pedrothellama · 23/04/2010 17:06

I am far too busy comtemplating how she remains on this earth unkilled

I shall do that this Saturday!

Sorry Dita - there was a thread hijack there but I am going home now

ditavionteased · 23/04/2010 17:07

oh my god this is the nicest wine ever (don't mean to rub salt in it pedro.

OP posts:
MrsYamada · 23/04/2010 17:12

pedro, take a bottle opener and whip the cork out before you hand it to her. Or mutter something about it leaking and needing to drink it NOW!

I could go for a beer right now.

florencerusty · 23/04/2010 17:19

oh I sure could use a drink! is that awful?

elmofan · 23/04/2010 17:22

pedro - Have you see that film GHOST ? i would be like whoopy goldberg handing that wine over to your MIL Have a bottle of wine to yourself before you leave your house then hopefully you might sleep through the visit to the in laws .
