Great advice, as always GrandpaMac. I might add that this sort of forethought could also go beyond just shooty stuff. Every couple of years our family has a bit of an 'AGM'. A few years ago, my sister asked what everyone wanted for their funerals... a little bit morbid, but the last thing I would want to be doing at a time like that is trying to work out all the little details: How did they want to be buried? What did they want to get buried in? Where did they want to get buried? Did they even want to be buried? What was their favourite music? Religious/non-religious? And indeed, who gets the proceeds from selling your 126 (!!) guns? It was actually bloody interesting exercise, and I'd encourage anyone to do it, no matter what age.
Echoing GrandpaMac's not leaving it too late, about 2 years after the funeral chat, I had a very close encounter with a London bus, that according to a witness when I came to, was cm's from ending rather differently (rather thankful to the new buses designed with rounded corners, which bounced me off a few lifesaving degrees away from the wheels - parents definitely didn't hear about that one...). Long-winded way of saying you just never know when your time is up.
