Remember "Meet the Fockers"?

When parents meet for the first time, that's got to be one experience to remember... Well, my fiancee's and mine are meeting for the first time in France this week-end and I think all of us are a little nervous :)

The fact that neither family can speak each other's language (apart from us, the couple!) is not to help. Fortunately I get on well with my inlaws but I can't get round that it's gonna happen tomorrow :eek:

Anybody in the same situation? Any amusing story about when your parents got to meet for the first time?... please share it!

Cheers,
Steph

Oh God. My wife is French and I am English.

I recall the first time I met her parents. And the first time she met mine. The first time they met each other is a haze. Sorry, but I am NOT going there.
