Hope it doesn't cause you too much grief and divide family members.

So it would seem.

It does indeed happen all to often and I'm having to deal with the same in our family atm with my late mother's estate. And as is often the case too the money grab is coming from a family member who did the least when it mattered and rarely showed his face.
The reason they have acted this way is because they are convinced I am holding info from them and that " there has to be more than this" . Well I contacted the solicitor this morning and told them exactly what went on, and asked them to send the other beneficiary in the will a copy of it, so they can see that what is written, is
exactly what I have told them. There you go , that's what you get, nowt more, nowt less, now p155 off.

Money, or the thought of it, changes a lot of people Rich and not for the better! One of my wife's friends married a deep sea diver, obviously he was on mega money. She became a right PITA, a real diva and self appointed Queen of the Filipino community in Edinburgh. Got to the point that other than a couple of hangers on nobody could be bothered with her.

Good morning Jeff, morning all. Shocking footage on Sky of the floods in the UK, who’d live next to a river? Thankfully my bashed head is much better today, I must be thicker than I thought, no harm done.
What is everyone up to?

Good morning Steve, how are you, did you enjoy the pork belly?

I wonder if your father had a problem with his spatial orientation, it would seem so. How kind of you to have given him a hard hat.

Morning Phil,

Glad your head is on the mend.

I happily live on a river every Monday/Tuesday....Thankfully my home floats!
Must be heartbreaking for those affected by the floods.
I would hate to see what their home insurance premiums will be on renewal.

Horrid ain’t it

Not sure I’ll be getting much photography done

Morning all, brightening a bit here, had a couple of heavy showers so far. Meeting one of my late aunt’s friends at her house later, to see about changing some of the security settings, following what happened the day of her funeral.
I’m over the worst of it now, but still can’t believe ANYONE would do such a thing on such a day, especially family.
