Where there's a will...
« on: December 15, 2009, 02:08:30 PM »
I happened to catch a repeat of the last Morse episode last night - he pegs it, ok. I guess he must have seen it coming because there was a section where he was going through his will and funeral arrangements with his solicitor - No religious ceremony, definitely no religious ceremony. The will was a simple 3 way split which was neat and reminded me that I need to update mine.

I'm wondering whether to discuss it with my only immediate relative or whether to keep it all a secret  rubschin:. There's always an expectation of who will get what and unless you let on it will remain just that ~ an expectation. Does it make sense to discuss it openly or to keep it a secret?

Keep it secret.

I tell everybody I am leaving it all to my mistress.

They generally laugh in a patronising way.  evil:
