Random irritations of the day......

We needed multiple originals after being told by many places they couldn’t take copies and they couldn’t return them either. Just seems a bit of rip off and a death tax!

Our lawyer signed and verified some copies to send to various places, free , he said they don't need the originals.

Will keep note of this for the next time...which is hopefully a long time in the future.

Genuine question, are there really designated routes only used for walking dogs?
(every day's a school day)

No but routes that are primarily used by dog walkers or the odd walker is now populated by hordes of families meeting up and unruly children unleashed. The dogs need different places to sniff and explore and they don’t get that walking on my heel dodging crowds.
A mild irritation.
I ended up at the golf club instead and gave the missus a tour and the dogs got a good run.

11 quid? you only need one these days and then scan it. 99% of places will now accept a scanned PDF.

We needed one (original for HMRC, one for the pension company, one for the bank and a couple of others). Think the registrar (lovely and helpful lady) recommended 10 as the average. Mind you that was eight years ago

I ended up ordering ten. I’d rather have extra now than having to spend way more down the line.

They went up in England from £4.00 to £11.00 in 2019.

Sorry to hear this. Wishing you well.

Thank you. Things are awful right now and a three week wait for the funeral hasn’t been easy. I don’t even feel like I’m fully grieving yet. It’s surreal.

Thanks for that. Had no idea at the time what we paid. More concerned with getting enough, getting the affairs sorted and the cremation organised

Spent all day today sorting this out, phone call appt with Registar tomorrow morning.

Due to Covid everything is being done by phone and email with paper copies to follow, seems easier than last time, but.......

We still have a landline specifically for the in-laws especially the M-I-L who is rubbish with her mobile and in an emergency would only panic.

I’d take the faceplate off and pull the wires out. Won’t have to listen to the old codgers then!

Can't do that. HID would be more than annoyed and the garage would be a tad nippy to sleep in and as in-laws go I could have done worse

Not your girlfriend?

Not your girlfriend?

Sadly yes, twelve days ago. Her treatment hadn’t worked, her cancer had spread aggressively and she developed kidney failure as a result that couldn’t be reversed.

Really sorry to hear that - deepest sympathies

Christ mate, words fail me, I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm sure you've already heard it a million times but stay strong.

It’s not fully hit me yet. There’s so much to do and I’ve thrown myself into that, Warzone and reading social media all day long! The funeral’s next Thursday and I think it’ll hit me as I write my eulogy.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

So sorry.

 

[williamalex1]

I feel your pain, I've lost so many people over the years, including my 38 year old daughter in 2006 and it still seems like yesterday .
Stay strong, make her proud, but you have to let go , grieve cry with close friends., take care xx
