16 Lloyds shares
I have 16 Lloyds shares in the name of my deceased mother. I am named as executor. I previously got some swapped to my name, but these few seemed to have missed. Seeing as Lloyds are about 50p per share then it's not really worth selling as the cost would be probably more than they are worth. Just wondered if there was a…

Most policies have Social, domestic, pleasure and…

My mum is taking part in the London Landmarks Half Marathon next year on the 20th March 2020. Her first born baby was still born nearly 40 years ago and the London Landmarks Half Marathon is taking place on the 40th anniversary.
