    We did we all sat down and discussed the will etc shortly after she died. It's not even worth getting a solicitor involved by the time they were paid there would be nothing left. My mum saved very little and was a pensioner, the most she had was a cupboard (huge walk in one) full of bargains bless her:D and after me and my other brother had spent all week clearing the flat him and his wife came and cherry picked what they wanted. And i let them as I don't to fall out with anyone. I am not interested in gaining financially from my mum's death but obviously he's different.

    I'm the same. I pestered my parents for ages to loan me the family photos to scan into the computer. Eventually they relented and I now have them copied and stored safely away. That is all I have ever worried about, the family photos being taken and never to be seen again. Now it is a simple thing to put them onto discs to give to all family members.

    Stressed out tonight, everything went off well as could be at my mum's funeral yesterday and then today my one brother texts my other brother and asks when he is getting his share of mum's money.

    So after holding it altogether yesterday despite a few digs from him I have gone off the deep end tonight and told him to take a hike for a good long while.

    Is it me or is asking that a bit insensitive the day after the funeral?

    Wow FloFlo I am really sorry to hear that and your reaction in my opinion was very justified.

    And to do it by text message as well :eek:

    So insensitive, selfish and unnecessary. Hugs to you FloFlo

    maybe you should explain to him that asking what pennis your mother has left you after shes passed awaw makes him scum.

    what a disgusting little man. no offence but your brother is a total tool.

    does that mean i can get a big stick, bend him over and put it in a very awkward place and pass it off as self defence :D

    I was exactly the same, I went through mum's photos and took everyone with her in and copied them straight away and gave them out to my brothers and other family - stupidly I thought they would be the important things they would want. I also put some up at the refreshments after the funeral and it started lovely discussions with friends and family about times passed.

    The only thing I was cross with my mum with was that she has destroyed all her wedding pics except for 2 really battered ones, I understand why as she divorced my dad when I was a teenager and I have no contact with him I just wish she had given me the pics rather than detroy them.

    I agree :D and his wife's no better. Might need to ask the hitman for a 3 for 2 offer.

    Sorry everyone but it has brought a lot of old family tension to the fore again.
