I certainly wouldn't have chosen her, her Mother disowned her and gave me the jewellery she wanted me to have and her wedding jewellery in her will to make sure I got them, not her.

Your Mother sounds like my sister in law, she didn't like me and I didn't care which irked her a lot, she tried to split hubby and me up and failed.

My Dad always said that to me but my so called mother always pretended to be what she wasn't and spoke with a BBC announcers's voice even though she was born and spent her early days in Bradford.
I was talking to OH about my earlier saying and he says his Dad used to say it too so perhaps it is a London one as both our Dads came from there.
I am going to say goodnight now as I am going to the Archive room again tomorrow and it is going to be a busy morning. The Archivist has a large pile of papers for me to scan and log onto the computer. Sleep well and I will see you tomorrow :-D <3
