Will I or won't I?

I didn't expect engagement presents - not really - but we have been lucky enough to receive the wonderful gift of cash from friends and family.

This now leaves me free to trawl the John Lewis http://www.johnlewis.com/ catalogue and find some "things for the home" that the other half will probably find completely pointless - I'm thinking scatter cushions and picture frames.

But we have also received a rather bizarre gift - one which I'm still not quite sure about how to react to.

A family friend and well respected lawyer has said that he would like to give us both the gift of..... a will. http://www.which.co.uk/advice/writing-a-will/index.jsp

Now I have to say the last thing on my mind was the thought of us both popping our clogs - considering this marriage is supposed to be the start of a long and happy life together - but it certainly made me sit up - and say thank you of course.

So now, for a moment, my mind is off the subject of flowergirls, cakes and invitations and instead I have to decide what I'd like to leave behind - and to who - when I depart from this earth.
