73 year old mother in law being chained up by her husband!

[thatlldopigthatlldo]

This is the reason why she couldn't come to the phone this afternoon.
Squealing 'close the curtains' at her husband.
Lots of giggling and unraveling of heavy duty chains in the background and she finally gets to the phone.

Seriously, what does one do with such a mother in law?

Yuhuuuh! That's what I said.

FIL is 81 or thereabouts.

oh come on, it is friday!

there is nothing else which can be said.

Please tell me they were doing something else with those chains than what I am thinking, seriously though - they might break a hip!

Hope I'm giggling and having fun like that when I'm 73

Maybe they're rehearsing for the local am dram performance of scrooge. Yes. That's it. dont disagree with me the other thing is too ick to think of

Happiest in-laws thread ever.

this is the same MIL that sends biscuits to the children in brown paper parcels wrapped up in string.

and postcards from everywhere she goes.

the only reason we are not throwing up about this is that FIL did the same thing to my DH last weekend, and says it's not dangerous.

i think DH quite enjoyed, especially as he was told to keep it a secret.

buy her a mobile so she doesn't have to yank the chain
she's game ole burd btw

Eh?!

Huh?

i know, he thought he was priveleged, turns out he does it to her too!

Later life change of career to trainee escapologist????

Can we have the punchline please?

santascomingface Best. Christmas. Name. Evah.

I may not even bother trying now.

actually crikeyblimey getting close there.

he's a magician. she married a magician. bless her heart helping him practise a trick, and we phone up at an inconvenient moment.

at any other reason.

Yey!!!!! What do I win???

er, yeah, i should have thought of a prize.
