The father of one of my best mates didn't make a will.
He was a QC, with 3 children, a wife, and 5 ex-wives. Didn't half cause trouble....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

Sometimes, in situations like that, I think it is deliberate. It avoids picking and choosing and deciding who the winners and losers will be.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?

Would they be good for gardeners? People put wood chips down as mulch and to suppress weeds. I have no idea whether these are the right sort of chips, though?
Wood chips for the BBQ go for an absolute fortune! £££s a kilo!

Once affordable, this could revolutionise getting the elderly and infirm fed in their own houses: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2521606/Print-food.html
At the moment, if you need a carer to come and feed you the cost of that is about £10 for them to pop in and microwave a meal for one. This would be a much cheaper/better solution for many. Then there's the cost of the meal for one to add to that.
It could be linked to a webcam with somebody asking them what they want to eat, then making sure they take it out [a] safely and they eat it.0 -

Upsetting story certainly. The perpetrators are victims and possibly have as little sense of 'wrongness' as the children. I'm not excusing the behaviour, its Obviously grotesque. But I think a demonising the adults there could be misguided.0 -
