The Higgins Trust impress on you the seriousness of
making a will out. That's the first thing
they talk with you about. So I sat down and wrote all my close
friends little letters, you know. Um... and I did find that
very distressing. Extremely distressing. It was a bit like writing
a suicide note. I-I phoned everybody up
and we laughed about it, and I said, "Look, I'm not going to be morbid, "but, er...if you don't tell me what
you would really like in my will, "then I'm going to leave you
something really horrible, "and you're going to really hate me
for it". And we laughed about it, and... Maybe I shouldn't have asked them
what they wanted, but... ..I wanted to, because
I wanted them to talk about it
