In other news, I've not managed to find ZeitMater's birth & marriage certificates which I've successfully put so safe they'll never be seen ever again.
Just shuffled (again) through huge pile of papers that need giving to the solicitor - something I had resolved to do before Christmas.
All got too much - shoved back in box until New Year.

Just made some sausage rolls to use up some pastry. They'll do for supper and breakfast/lunch tomorrow. I also need to eat last night's leftovers. With that done, I will be near Fridge Zero, ready for the onslaught of leftover stuff-my-mum-bought-for-Christmas.
I'm banking on some good ham, and lots of turkey soup. I think I prefer her turkey soup to the actual turkey, it's so good

After the closing of ZeitPater's Halifax accounts and the consumption by me, ZeitSis and ZeitNephew of yesterday's rather toothsome lentil <pfffft!> soup, we completely forgot to sign the probate forms.

Whilst searching for ZeitMater's cunningly hidden birth certificate, I managed to find the death certs for my Great Uncle Samuel, who was run over by a horse & cart at the grand age of 5 in Water Street, Neath, and for his sister who only made it to 7 months.
Not forgetting various stuff about my aunts, one of whom died after her nightdress caught fire when she was 7 in 1929, and the other who died in 1949 from heart disease brought on by rheumatic fever.
I have the hospital bill from 1929 for £1/1/0 (a guinea).
There was no bill from 1949 since the NHS had arrived.
