Well my lot didn't even help me clearing the house Jazzi. They just told me what they wanted out of it.

I had a little help in clearing out. The funniest thing was I'd put up postcards in nearby shop windows offering large items of furniture. One was Mum's lovely leather settee. I was sitting in her flat (stayed there for 7 weeks) watching telly early evening, got a phone call, can we come and look at the settee? A lovely young couple came along, I got mum's NDN to pop in to be with me, he knocked me down a bit, but they took it straightaway, shoved it in the back of his car with much of the settee hanging out of it, the girl in the back seat hanging on. And me, with nowhere to sit!!

I do believe I had to use a camping chair.

You know the real case they were based on started in the 1790's so it was over 50 years old when Dickens wrote Bleak House and the case finally ended in 1915 when the money finally ran out.

So it continued for nearly 50 years after Dickens died. I think the case was something like Jennings v Jennings or a similar such name.

The message is DON'T DIE WITHOUT MAKING A WILL. Geddit?
