Richard re your comment "read the f*****g law" we are not people who work in the legal profession, we rely in the main for information from good people like yourself. So, could I suggest that instead of screaming "read the f******g law" you merely explain to us what the law is pertaining to any given situation.

On a personal note if I wrote a will excluding my son from any inheritance and left my estate to a cats home I should want my wished carried out exactly in accordance with my will and would not want a judgement after my demise to give the little sod anything.

As it is he will inherit anything I haven't already spent when I pop my clogs.
