I had to leave the computer and have only just got the will. I can't even attempt to make a better job of it than Zoe, so I won't try, but I will have a go at reading it over again just for practice in case I need to read any old writing in the future. Kath. x |

Just a useful bit of legalese. It will be seised with an s not seized with a z. Seised of means owned by. J (not a lawyer!) |

I am finding Mandy's Will v hard to read as it is faint and slightly out of focus. |

Hi Jim, I've had a better copy sent, and also a family member has had a go at transcribing it. (bless!) I now have a more or less ok transcription, which has only arrived very recently. There are a few areas where we're not very sure, but thank you for trying anyway. I feel awful now that a transcription has appeared unexpectedly. Thank you so much again. |

Nudging this so I can find it again when I have more time. Isn't it wonderful that there are so many kind people willing to help. |
