Pat never starved cause the faeries were in Brussels sitting beside Ray McSharry when the common agricultural policy was being negotiated in 1992.

You couldnā€™t see them but they were there in green jumpers and red trousers and were approximately 5 foot 10 inches tall and they giggled throughout.

Weā€™ve been living off that bit of magic since.

Thereā€™s worse ways of trying to get a will backdated I supposeā€¦

Heā€™d be better off taking a Hymac to it.

Ah look. There is no need to take that tone. Iā€™m happy to advise fellas on it. All around you all there are inheritances up for grabsā€¦

The timing of the intervention is critical however, jump too soon and you could be wiping holes and putting in eye drops for a decade. Leave it too late and the chances of tilting things in your direction are significantly reduced.

Keep your ears open for upcoming medical proceduresā€¦ Offer to feed the cats, dogs etc during the absence. Youā€™ll build up trust this way. There will always be a bit of rehab after and familyā€™s arenā€™t always conveniently close. Before you know it youā€™ll be collecting the pension and doing the odd visit to the bank. Then spin the odd poor mouth story about trying to raise a few kids and the struggles around itā€¦ At worst youā€™ll get a site for a housheen.

Iā€™d usually step away at at this point before things get ugly but for those who have their heads about them it could be worth sticking with things. Iā€™d say @TheBird would be the man to advice from here on. Iā€™d say heā€™s an expert on spotting the early tell tell signs of early dementia/alziemers.

Have you any guidance on identifying a ā€˜suitableā€™ solicitor would be be best places to deal withā€¦

Carry on.

@Fagan_ODowd would be some challenge.

Heā€™s become totally dependent on me for guidance regarding his homebrew efforts. Itā€™s a tricky channel to navigate but when I saw heā€™d taken onboard my heat belt advice I knew I was getting somewhere.

Was stopped at a checkpoint earlier on the way to the park for a walk. Itā€™s such nonsense. Everything is closed and you canā€™t even head out for a walk without being stopped and asked where youā€™re travelling to.

Were you within your 5km

What happens if they legalise euthanasia? Youā€™ll have to have groundwork done thereā€™ll be yanks coming out of the walls with word of the big day

Loads of cars out and about at the weekend, itā€™s well beyond just construction and schools being open. Ranelagh was hopping last night.

If I might just add to this excellent ā€œBeginners Guide to Inheritencesā€ the offer to bring a couple of crĆ”tures to Mass of a Saturday evening can be a gamechanger. They naturally assume youā€™re bringing your own tribe on the Sunday and are agreeable to this.
Just one for the tracker as the racy guys sayā€¦
