Well I've heard that things are going belly up on the thread again, I'm 40 pages of 40 posts per page behind, I've had the day from hell, so don't think I'll bother catching up.
I hope no one is in need of support and I'm sorry if I've missed anything.
Just a bit of advice.... make a will if you have loved ones.
Tonight I feel as if I've lost my Grandad all over again
My mum discovered his house had been put up for sale by my Aunty - who has no right to do this - 3 siblings, all equal share, nothing discussed.
So for over four hours tonight I've been to my grandad's house, routing through rubbish bins finding memories that have been carelessly thrown away, fortunately these could be retrieved... sadly I can't say the same for the bags and bags that were taken to the tip. And it's driving me insane wondering what has been lost forever.
My mum and I went over there every few weeks to just feel close to my Grandad, it still smelt of him, everything was how he'd left it, we'd have dinner from the chippy my Grandad always took us to and then off we'd go. Now I know that couldn't have gone on forever, but now our chance to say our last goodbyes to the house, to my Grandad, to the familiar smell, to everything we'd loved, has been ripped from us.
Today the house may as well have been empty, it didn't feel like his, it didn't smell like him.
So, don't think that families will stick with each other and all get along nicely, yes, many will be fine, but others can be so effing hurtful.
Anyway, just as I was getting far to upset I saw the meteorite breaking up, truly amazing and was like a little phone call from heaven, sadly not long enough.
I'll stop rambling now, I do hope you are all ok
Aww Sending you big cwtches xxxx sounds like you have had a very upsetting day and i completely understand, my mothers family were just as bad as what you have discribed, they looted my grandmothers house just to get what they could before anyone else, it breaks my mothers heart to think of all the treasured things being thrown away or sold off just for the money
We dont bother with them anymore they were nothing but money grabbing idiots who showed their true colours in the endHello my name is nahteb20 and i am a T's Glitch & Bargainaholic.......0 -

None of the stuff we rescued tonight was of monetary value, just things like postcards I'd sent to my grandad and nana as a child, my uncles school work over 40 odd years old, precious letters, cards, photos.
I dread to think what will happen when it comes to any of the ornaments or things of worth.
But the little things that are of no worth money wise mean more to me, things that no money could ever buy.
I'm so sorry your family had to go through the same.0 -

What error message if any are you getting? Are you sure it's not because you can't post anything yet as you're new on this site? I believe there is a certain number of posts you have to make before you can post pics. Also, you have to be a member for a certain number of days. Don't know how many posts or days you have to have under your belt though.0 -

Sorry to hear this. I remember all the financial heartache when my grandad past away. Heart wrenching to watch. I won't even drive down his old road past the house anymore as it makes me so angry.
