    Fml re MIL; my lot spring bbqs on family, expect everyone to drop any plans so know what its like. Doesn't matter how many times you tell them they still do it.

    Ha what sort of dog is it - golden retriever by any chance?
    No it's a manky romanian rescue which we believe is a Czech Wolf Dog cross.

    He looks even more manky than usual at the minute. He has been suffering with allergies this spring/summer so has chewed the hair off his legs.

    No way am I being seen in public with it!!

    Are they staying for the whole weekend? Sounds like you might need a few beers to get you through it if so 😆 Nice of them to give you notice.

    They are coming down late on Friday and going again on Sunday morning. I might have enough beer in to manage that!

    I am going to have to tell them, yet again, that we need more notice before they descend on us. It's fine for them because they never go anywhere or do anything but we have plans made weeks and months in advance which can be a nightmare if not impossible in some cases to rearrange. We can't just keep dropping everything just because they fancy a visit.

    The dogs look as if they had a great time together. 
    It’s lucky for the in laws that you had no plans at weekend. Hope you have a good time together.
