Daffy my mum was the same, she died and left everything to her boyfriends children and left a whole mountain of debt to be cleared off which nearly caused us to be homeless-despite teh fact SHE hadnt paid any child maintenance in our life time
I'll be getting some money next year from my nan. She has sold her land in Cyprus and is dividing the money 7 ways between me, my brother and my 5 cousins.
