After 4.3 months I have finally ended my practical tasks related to my bereavement.I had to make about 14 phone calls to the Customs and Revenue and only later did I realise that the young man had not been able to explain the tax to me but I worked it out myself.It might have been easier to take to my bed and lie down for three months.
I located Alfred’s owner.His real name is Luca and he is definitely male.She said he is nervous but he seems very calm unless I accidentally stand on his foot.But the cat always hangs around purring for food so it’s not easy to keep him safe
How my heart sings 
Great step forward….Yes! Hopefully the ‘Tax Affairs’ are soon sorted.
Alfred? Well he now has an ID! 😉
I think he’s an angel as he began coming just before my husband died and has been a comfort to me since.:)xx
That’s a major step forward, putting the paperwork behind you. I wish you well over the next weeks and months. Grieving takes its own course, doesn’t it, and it would be better not to have it cluttered with lumpy officialdom. All the best, Katherine.
Yes,indeed.I have had problems with tax and yet there was very little money which they knew but had to put me through a lengthy form filling exercise just when I was told [wrongly] that my haemoglobin was only half of the norm…so I might have been dying but it was a doctor who misread a number on the computer.So my haemoglobin appears ok…And it’s lovely weather here which helps too.Thanks so much,Tish.xxx
