I dont think you can harm your situation by answering a question for MIL. This is an opportunity to "act as if" everything is ok with you. Dont go overboard but let your care free attitude come through the text.
Just my opinion.
Thanks Thornton, though I'm not sure how to put out 'act as if' in response to MIL. She wrote: 'Hi jbroken, how are you? Wanted to ask if you can check to see if W left her driving licence in the flat - she said it might be in the coat she left behind the door, can you just check to see if it's there and let me know? X'
Any suggestions welcome
