How is yer wee mammy, btw? Hope she's well. Good that you visit her:)

Yeah still going at 86, no idea how. Never off her feet. I try to get up there once a month or so.Quote:

Yes, sorry for your loss, Steve. That must've been a shock.
Our sincerest condolences.

Thanks guys, but I'm not particularly sorry about the 'loss'. Over my lifetime, I had only low expectations, which he always failed to reach. He was always, for want of a better word, a shithead.
I've just come off a one hour phone conversation with my sister, who's dealing with his affairs, and what she told me has me nearly as shocked as she is - to say he was living a double life would be an understatement.
The funeral will be interesting, can't wait for that. Gonna be a proper scrap I reckon.
Nice one. I'd a feeling she'd be in her mid-80s now. Good that she's still self-sufficient. Keeping busy is probably what's keeping her going.Quote:

Looks like it has recovered well. You must be pleased.
