Hotel Offers To Keep Mothers-In-Law For Xmas

9:01am UK, Tuesday November 24, 2009

David Williams, Sky News Online
A hotel chain has promised families a stress-free solution to hosting the in-laws over Christmas.

The offer extends to all 194 Holiday Inn or Holiday Inn Express hotels in the UK

Holiday Inn is offering a special room rate for mothers-in-law during the festive period, so that families can have a break from each other.

Relatives can check their partner's mum into a room and gain a 25% discount.

The rate will be offered to in-laws between December 23 and 29, and extends to all of the firm's 194 Holiday Inn or Holiday Inn Express hotels across the country.

Relationship expert Kirsten Gronning said incidents of arguments increase fivefold during the festive celebrations.

"Christmas can be an extremely stressful period, especially for the family planning and catering for it," she said.

A book token usually does the biz.

Another good idea for a present is a year's subscription to a magazine....... for example  Irish History magazine if that is what interests him. 12 times a reminder to him about the present.
