Take my Mother-in-law...There's a reason there are so many bad jokes about mothers-in-law. You don't choose them, they just come along as emotional baggage with your object of affection. I'm lucky, my m-i-l is lovely*, but don't let that put you off telling us how mad your in-laws really are.
*No, really

Katharine Tate's 'Grandma'My MiL is indeed the nicest person you could ever meet (if she likes you!) and the most wonderful Grandma. However, she does have the most remarkable similarity to Katharine Tate's character 'Grandma'. Of good south London/Irish stock, she claimed to have suffered Tourettes 'before it was invented' and is constantly told off by the grandchildren for her use of the word 'cunt' on a regular basis.
A recent classic is her reaction to seeing photos of my niece: "Ahhhh lovely, lovely, lovely...........mind you, that baby's got a farking big 'ead, ain't it?"
Priceless.
