You have not been able to since 1966 and I have watched you not be able to for twenty-eight years and I have never once blamed you for it, because I could not say no to my own father either and he was a worse man than she is.

So I am not going to leave anything in this family that depends on you saying no.

I have put one line in it that does not depend on anybody being good.

It is at paragraph fourteen and you will know it when you read it.

Everything else in that document depends on somebody behaving, and that one does not, and that is the only part I am sure of.

My father stood in my workshop at eighty-five years of age and watched me read that, and when I got to the end he said one thing and then went out to the taxi.
