Would you consider a trade in?

I have a much younger model available but would waive any cash back

 

[Anthea M]

Forgot to ask can said MIL knit anything ? I need some decorations for the garden a la wool bombing stylee?!

 

[Sheddy]

Have you considered placing your advert in the Benidorm Local Brit Newspapers.
The response may well be overwhelming for such a young lady, especially if she does not need a mobility buggy.
I know fellow Funsters who might be interested, but I notice there is no mention in your add regarding experience of grey water and cassette disposal, can she drive and if so does she have any A framing experience.
Cheers
Ed

Can she knit?

I have a slightly younger model to dispose of (88), but I have to be honest and say she is slightly faulty, so it's sold as seen. The hearing apparatus seems to be one of the main areas where repairs are required, although the voice control seems to be stuck somewhere between 'complain' and 'ignore'. Just recently I have noticed that the catering facility cannot be changed from 'corned beef hash' and 'burnt salad', but maybe a 90 year service will sort things out. The mobility function was working fine until recently when someone gave her a wheelchair, since which her ability to walk unaided when her daughter is in earshot and available to push has noticeably declined. A cup of tea back home always restores the mobility function to normal so perhaps a reprogram of her on board computer is required using the latest microsoftamotherinlaw software.

Please let me know how much I need to pay you to take this splendid example of the species off our hands.

I just hope the MIL never gets to read this thread

If I could have years ago I would have paid for someone to take my MIL away

 

[cliffanger]

Was going to bid before I read @pappajohn 's thread regarding EBay's return policy - is MHF's the same ? ....... the worrying bottom seal issue might be a problem ..... Clifton's current model has the same problem so unless your model has a decent hearing system allowing the necessity of annoying subtitles having to be on when she's in residence, he says he'll (reluctantly) stick with the one he has - at least he knows her history.......

I wish I had a MIL.




I could return her faulty goods that she produced.

Hilarious!!!

They don't come on the market to often, what a rare opportunity to acquire such a gem and know doubt with a skill set as long as your arm, whatever the final bid "well worth it"

And me,even my wife and daughters dislike her

 

[Minxy]

Could I interest anyone in a MAM ....

Now 91 years old so has some slight leakage mainly on start-up with the odd backfire, runs well and can travel quite some distances under own power, needs regular top-ups but only uses the cheapest fuel so very efficient. Mechanically okay, still in original condition except for replacement cogs (teeth) but means no expensive repair bills for this, only uses inexpensive products to maintain its condition, no cosmetic/bling pimping required although an occasional wash is beneficial. Needs fettling regularly to avoid loud engine noises but once done is happy to run for a while on own ... however if neglected can get very noisy and refuse to stop!

All in all a well loved and cared for example that would be hard to part with ... but may do so if the price is right!

 

[Anthea M]

Sounds like a keeper to me!!

I would place a bid,
but looking closely at what she is plugged into I am worried she may have been re programmed or re booted at some point
do I suspect past running problems is she jail broke or original Android
If Apple Not Interested

[Jenben]

For those interested in this mother-in-law, can I just point out that a M-I-L is for life, not just for Christmas.

As is a MAM ... especially since she informed us on Christmas Day that she intends to now live until 117!!! Plenty of life left in her yet for the purchaser!!!

Is anyone interested in a Father in-law? He can be a bit grumpy at times but he did provide Remy Martin VSOP and damson gin for the drinks cupboard. He is extremely healthy for his age (86) so will probably last for years yet, very willing to work but can be a bit gung-ho.

 

[CWH]

I notice all auction items so far have been of the female persuasion.
I have a rare 88-year-old MALE version which one of the sellers may wish to buy in order to support their own sale : a couple may sell more readily than a single female.

EDIT just noticed @scousebird 's post!

 

[Minxy]

What about a husband ... can be a bit 'pernickety' if over-fuelled, and likes to be well fed so consumption figures can be high, however good at routing out bargains, good at household chores especially cooking ... best to keep away from DIY though ....

I to still have a MIL. However, as her sewing, sausage rolls, mince pies (with home made mince) and chocolate moose are to die for, I regret she is not for sale under any circumstances. So you lot can bog off.

Anyway, even if I were to sell her, this might provoke Management into asking her brothers to visit me. Both of them are just a little bit bigger than me.

Shows intelligent behaviour, enjoys companionship, can be trusted around children, does not shed, or bite, doesn't wander or get under your feet, all original parts are in place ...

No, but I've got her phone number.
Feel the pain.

 

[big bertha]

If I ever become a MIL I don't want to be sold on unless they have more money, big house or are farmers.

Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
























No thank you, had enough trouble with the one I had until a few years ago. Indeed, since his demise, MIL has been much improved. Almost a Renaissance.
