    Thank you - I saw your reply but couldn't answer as the thread was closed. We should have got this done when we did new wills several years ago but didn't get around to it. I metioned it to DH after Christmas and , although he wasn't exactly overkeen he didn't throw a wobbly either ! Men do have a tendency to stick their heads in the sand over things like this.

    I will get a solicitors appointment when we get back from Sri Lanka next month. One thing that was worrying me a bit was we don't have any close family other than my son and his wife and I don't feel comfortable in handing over full control. I was hoping we could nominate each other with my son as a backup. We'll see what the solicitor says Thanks for the info.
    TBW, I recently discussed this with my parents and they are keen to get theirs done, however, a rough quote from the solicitors came back as over £1000 for the 2 of them.
    So I have been looking into this, and found a lot of useful info on the gov website. There are 2 POA you can do, one financial and one about health, so my parents want 2 each. These cost £110 each, so now £440. But then, I read on the gov website that if your income is under £12k you can get a 50% reduction in the cost of the POA ......then I read that if you get certain benefits you can get the POA for free, which my parents qualify for. So we went from a £1000+ quote to zero. Admittedly I will have to complete all the paperwork, and you have to ensure that you do not make any mistakes (will get sister to check everything), but I am confident that it should not be too difficult. I know it wont suit everyone, but the gov website is certainly worth a read.

    Evening, thanks for t he new thread rhosynbach, love the title.

    Good evening everyone and thanks for the new thread :)

    I haven't had time to catch up yet so hope no one is too annoyed at me over my failed glitch info :o I've been feeling a bit sorry for myself tonight because I hate my job and it doesn't leave me enough time to do my favourite obsession, ie glitch finding :D My boss was fully on form today, nit picking at several things I did, huffing and puffing and banging on the keyboard :( so I decided to check what new jobs are available. A new one went up today for an administrator at a local Italian restaurant. I figured that me being half Italian and having an Italian name would give me advantage over the other candidates :p so I got myself dolled up and took my CV in person :) Fingers crossed I hear back from them :cool:

    Good luck and fingers crossed you get the job.

    Been at hospital since 3.00pm. Mum has had chest pains and they have admitted her and are going to fit a pacemaker in the morning. They did tell us she may go downhill suddenly so be prepared. I called my sister who is in Nice at her flat at the moment and she is coming into bristol airport at 22.20. When we left hospital she was very distressed as the drugs were affecting her. Hoping she will be better in the morning and that the op is successfull

    (((Hugs))) hope surgery goes well.

    Sadly missed the biggest part of the last thread due to RL taking up the majority of my time.
    Hope everyone is well.:)
    Will try and keep up this time round:o
