Southerly: When Otters Get Famous,
Mine arrived too but I've saved opening it until tomorrow so that I can be the one to read it to my girls and not the (lovely) nanny. Ooh, wonder what number I got?

@ Rob - I like that, thanks!

Late to the discussion but never mind! I tend to use "de facto" or "partner" and it seems to work quite well. We find the trickier ones are what to call the wider family, eg, his mum is my...what? "Mother-in-fact"? All suggestions welcome.

And for the record I use Ms quite happily (necessary for the times I appeared in Court) but really hate Mrs hissurname.
