Just had a text from W:

"Just paid you my share of the monthly bills. Just trying to fill in the form still. Do we need to declare that the joint account money will be split 50/50 on there?"

My first thoguht - she's *still* trying to fill it in?! Only took me half an hour - she's had the form for over a week and a half. Also, I'd already put a note on the form about splitting that account 50/50 - she clearly hasn't read it. Oh well!

I'm going to respond:

"Hi.
Thank you for sending me the bills. Yes there is already a sentence about that in the additional info section. I appreciate there's a lot of info to put down."

Still maintaining the high road, polite, business-like comms.
