A proper Christmassy tale. Glad to see the reference to 'It's A Wonderful Life', in my view as required now as 'A Christmas Carol'! 

Enjoyed the read.

That's great - what a splendid thing for your friend to do. 

Take or leave Marmite, eh? Stay well away from keen scientists. They'll have you in a lab, scanning you for traces of alien DNA. Life, but not as we know it

Goodness me, that last line

Goodness me, that last line is a killer! Florence was definitely a lady of particular views! 

Old wills are fascinating things, and it is always so interesting to see things like bedding and clothes carefully allocated - things like that...
