Mecki, welcome to the In-Laws from Hell Club!  The one advantage I have is 
that DH's parents never come over and don't acknowledge my existence, so I 
no longer have to deal with them.  I know it's difficult, but try to remind 
yourself that it's your FIL who's the waste of space, not you.  Give your 
husband a firm kick in the behind and tell him that he's supposed to be on 
*your* side.  And gently ask your neighbour to not give your emergency key 
out to *anyone* except you, DH, or the kids.

While we're thinking up delightful scenarios involving various in-laws (the 
bus with bad brakes; gee, where did that stray bullet come from?) let's ask 
Tabouli for a nifty acronym and see if we can have some badges made up ;)

Strength!

(whose favourite scenario is "Aliens kidnap MIL"...nah, they'd give her 
back)
