Hi Woofgang, I've not quite got this replying to an answer quite right yet, so as to your Great Answer to my will question, please could you give a few hints as to how you worded your will, no personal details of course, just the basics; if you don't want to do this, that's fine, I know it's a very personal thing, but I need all the help I can get. I do hope you don't mind, though probably you do.

thanks Murray. Woodelf, i would be happy to help but my copy of my will is in the attic. My executor has a copy and there is a copy lodged at my solicitors at no charge to me, so I don't keep my copy handy.

JOHN SMITH

signed by the said John Smith as and for his last will in the presence of us both present at the same time who at his request in his presence and in the presence of each other have hereunto subscribed out names as witnesses

my own view is that you are seriously crazy to get a will from an unknown bozo [that would be me] on the internet instead of paying peanuts to get one done by a lawyer. wills start as low as £40

( which I did )

this is my fathers will from 1972 which from what you have said will fit the bill.

I would advise a residuary clause to guard against the possibility that you wife might predecease you, otherwise you are in intestate territory.
I would advise going to a proper lawyer and not trying to do it yourself ( no matter how much cheaper that seems now)

Hi Peter, it's nice to know that someone out there thinks I'm crazy - it's one of my better traits!...smile....but I am going to go to a solicitor - in March and October it's free will writing time; see?...I'm not that crazy! Many Thanks though for the wording you gave, it helps to know what to expect or to do. Very Many Thanks also to Woofgang and Murray and Jackdaw.
(and if AB Editorial Staff are reading, this new layout isn't screen reader friendly - yet...though if this gets through, then I've done summat right at last! Ta Muchly Everyone.
