Right up there in the fun stakes with cervical smears and doing the yearly accounts comes making a will. I leave it to him, he leaves it to me, in the event that we both die together in some freak accident the youngest is deemed to be the survivor!!!
Not only do you have to take into consideration who you leave it to but also what happens to it if THEY die. It’s like doing your family tree I’ve had to make a list of names of relatives I barely know incase everyone is wiped out. Just like looking into those infinity mirrors.
And it’s the first time in my entire life I’ve heard the word “testatrix” (female will maker) My only moment of enjoyment in the whole tedious experience was imagining that would make my husband the testaticle – sadly not. No wonder so many people leave it all to their cat. If Eddie wasn’t looking so ropey it might be an idea certainly a lot easier!
