Glaswegian-born Richard Brown takes pride in being a bit lippy with Kumud Patel, his Indian mother-in-law.

Richard married his wife Asvina seven years ago and he's now on the long journey to become the model Indian son-in-law.

It's a journey that recently took him on a three week holiday to Gujarat in India with Kumud and several of her friends, but without his wife and their two young children.

Kumud and Richard talk to Michael Rosen about the trip and how it gave Richard a chance to practice his Gujerati. But - according to Kumud - when he speaks this noble language, he sounds like a child!
