'My mother-in-law arranged to plant a tree in our garden - she didn't get permission'

A heavily pregnant woman nearly jumped out of her skin after seeing an email her mother-in-law had sent, informing her and her husband that gardeners were on the way to plant a tree in their front garden.

The frantic mum, who is due to give birth this week, says the email arrived at 8 am, with her mother-in-law advising the five-foot tree would be planted that same day.

She says her mother-in-law didn't ask their permission beforehand, and that she had simply gone ahead and made the arrangements without any agreement or sign-off from them whatsoever.
