    This is already in motion, see post #30 and #32 but thanks for the suggestion anyway.

    Thanks for everyone's replies, I will be speaking to MIL whenever I see her next. After speaking to my sister in law, it seem that this is something that MIL used to do with her own kids quite often, so the posters who suggested that it might be a generation issue have hit the nail on the head.

    I think it wasn't too uncommon to still leave a baby in the pram outside the shops until about 93 because I remember our local shop keeper saying bring the prams in and not to leave them outside, after James Bulger. As I remember it anyway, I was quite young though.
    If you're going to stalk me, while you're at it can you cut the grass, feed the dog & make sure I've got bread & milk in :D
