Fantastic idea, can't wait for it to be completed and get mine filled in. :TTrying to tidy and clean while the kids are still growing, is like trying to clear snow even though it's still snowing

As well as those contact details, list renewal dates for insurance policies or other things that are easily forgotten - annual travel insurance, car MOT etc.
The details don't only need collating for a partner but also on moving house, which means you can spend the last month or two beforehand adding club memberships or magazine subscriptions etc.0 -

I remember user islandman mentioning this very thing when setting up telephone accounts online as his wife would be unable to access them should she have to.
So I would say this has to be included somewhere especially if only one person accesses the internet they would need help from someone.
My Dad had a list in the top drawer of his desk such as this and on his sudden death all we had to do was read his list and all the information needed was there.
Funeral wishes and location of burial plot, should there be one.0 -
I've created a "if I get run over by a bus" file for dh as he doesn't do any admin... It has different tabs - important numbers, telephone/reference/account for our banks/insurances/plumbers/whoever. I've also got contact details for friends/family/neighbours. Other tabs have financial debts standard menus (including where the recipe is - which cookbook & pg) And a page that has "other stuff" like where the spare keys are, where the wills are etc.
When we moved house it was easy to run down the list - ringing people and having everything in one place - I just photocopied it and wrote when I rang etc.
Makes life so much easier - and it is one of the things I'd grab as I evacuated!0
