Get death certificate, get probate and away you go. Piece of piss. This scrap of paper which you say was your mothers will. Was it witnessed? I think given that estates can be worth hundreds of thousands of pounds due to say the value of property I think it’s worth a few hundred quid to get the will properly sorted rather than writing it on the back of a fag packet. If you were to sell a property would you be comfortable writing the contract between you and the purchaser on a piece of kitchen roll you just happened to have lying about? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a case down here where my friend's husband concluded a £300k contract with a handshake, died a few years later and the other party (elderly, Alzheimer's) is denying the terms of the deal. Nightmare for my friend. Will probably go to court. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Voice of Reason Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 From Facey it appears that Saffron Indian restaurant in Ramsey is now closed, apparently due to non payment of rates. Obviously I don’t know whether that’s true or not but it does have a very odd history, for example in who runs it, whether in fact the “new management” it boasted of, was in fact new management. If true it’s shame, Ramsey could do with a traditional Indian restaurant. There is Velika’s which aspires to be more than that but if they have more than twenty covers in they seem unable to cope.

Landlord apparently changed the locks. The people running the place are alleged to be still accepting on line orders and taking the cash, but not actually delivering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably they're taking card payments, so that isn't a strategy with a future as soon as the card merchant services finds out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopek Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 1 hour ago, The Voice of Reason said: t appears that Saffron Indian restaurant in Ramsey is now closed If this is the place that has had several ''staff'' legality issues , it would be an indication of a cavalier attitude to the rules? May have included rent and rates facilities??? It's always a shame if they were providing a good service for the local market, albeit after closing time service? 20 years ago no one would have questioned the provenance of the staff, cousins, nephews ? Get on with it? Too many regulations??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
