    Odd one but I would pay for my will.:eek:
    Its needed doing for some time and I am so worried it won't be done in time.
    There would be nothing left over but were there to be, I need to buy 3 Christmas pressies. And that's me sorted.

    My brothers birthday is in a couple of weeks so I would use some of it to pay for his gift and cake. The rest would go on to the gas & electric meters as even the polar bears living in my lounge are complaining that they are too cold!
