GM, Thanks for your support - you know how I feel.
I wonder what XH will do about the funeral.
He rang the kids early yesterday morning but we had already left for sport. They called him back when they had finished and he told them over the phone that their great grandfather had died.
He didn't offer to come and see them - but this was because he was due to play in his Sat afternoon football game with all of his new 20-year-old friends. He still has his priorities!
I don't hold out much hope that he will do the right thing by the kids in respect of the funeral, but we'll see. To complicate matters, he and I have a court hearing scheduled for next week in relation to financial settlement. It will probably end up being the same day as the funeral.
