    Default October 2023 Challenge: Mother-in-law Land

    "Welcome to Mother-in-law Land, the theme park where no matter what you do it will never be good enough."

    I thought I'd try my hand at a theme park map just for a laugh.

    Attractions include:
    - the tutting roller-coaster (whether you're thrilled or frightened, each reaction is tutted at and called an embarrassment)
    - dishwashing advice (wash the coffee mugs first; that fork still has lasagne on it; be careful with those wine glasses, they were my grandmother's)
    - dusting challenge (see how much dust you can remove before the MIL arrives with the white gloves to test your dusting skills)
    - Dodgems (with backseat driver)
    - gossip endurance (see how long you can last the incessant criticism of various family members, friends and neighbours)
    - the "have another scone" marquee followed by "by you've put on some weight"

    and much more (hopefully)

    Money back guarantee if you don't leave a gibbering nervous wreck.

    Will there be a ride where you are forced to watch and listen to stories of how successful that other guy is, the one your spouse broke up with before meeting you?

    Looking forward to seeing how this one goes...

    Right, I've started on the map. Let's see where this goes. For the record I've nothing against MsIL but you know, stereotypes and all that.
