'I Tony M being of sound mind hereby bequeath the following on the confirmation of my death.
To my friend Minestrone I leave the contents of
my spirits cabinet
To my friend Cojak, I leave my collection of guitars I
collected during the 1950s and the book Rolf Harris plays the Ukele
To Suityou I leave my bedding, you may want to have it cleaned first what with the groupy action I had in the 70s
To Mary Poppins I leave my dartboard and a picture of me playing the guitar
While to my good friend Mr Marillion Fan I leave my house, car(if they ever find it) and all
my cash, plus royalties from my music
and finally to my special friend, my buddy Woderick I leave my collection of sexually transmitted diseases I hope he has as much fun with them
as I did
