Darkie, I think you might mean the Guardianship Board? Do not get involved with them under any circumstances if you can avoid them.
If you thought dealing with Centrelink was a pain, you ain't seen nothing till you have tried to deal with the Guardianship Board. My parents had to deal with them over the affairs of one of Dad's aunts. It was a nightmare that I still remember even though I was only a teenager at the time.
The Public Trustee is marginally better if you have absolutely nobody else to administer your Will...at least it will not be you having to deal with them.
I am talking here about NSW but I imagine they are much the same everywhere.
My father's cousin was a top QC in Sydney back in the 60's and 70's and he always told us that the law is an ass...I can not count the number of times since then that I have proved him right, especially in the area of Wills and probate.
....
Yes definitely 'the law is an ass' - as quoted from Shakespeare 🙂
You've jogged my memory lyndal, its the Guardian Trust and is put in place so that my lawyer is my chief Carer should I lose my marbles and have to be placed in a nursing home. He sees to the wishes I have stated in a document.
He also has Power of Attorney and would be my executer in the event of my death.
It leaves my son free to get on with life without all the paper work 🙂
Hey! who can recall the first time television went to air? and the different series that we watched back then like '77 Sunset Strip' with Kooky and his comb and 'Harry Lime', who remembers the Harry Lime Theme? What about Elliot Ness and 'I Spy' where for the first time a black man had equal billing with a white man... and why can't I remember his name - he went on to become a rather good comedian.
Golly all that is a long time ago.
Well daylight saving is over so when I wake in the morning it is still pitch black but so far we are getting dawn quite early at about 6.15 am, later it will be about 7.45 before we see the sun.
We're sliding guys. We are going out backwards.
Oh well let's hope we last a little longer.
Anyone got something to say?
I went to gym today, first time in 3 months and I am stiff and sore but no doubt I will get back into it as winter comes along.
Hope to see someone here tomorrow 🙂
yippee dooo.
You sound so thrilled gilli golli... :^O
Good luck finding another car for the right price...
Richo I just hope your ten days off are renewing and relaxing for you... that sounds like very hard hours.. what do you work at?
I spent today planting out 8 bush roses and fixing hose connections to the bore... making the dogs meals for the next month and generally wiping myself out
Gee it's a bother running out of energy isn't it. 😞
Lovely day down here at 26˚ with cool air to breathe... lovely indeed 🙂
