According to Census figures from the Office for National Statistics, nearly a third of married opposite-sex couples have an age gap of five years or more with the equivalent figure for those cohabiting being just short of 34 per cent. In 68 per cent of married couples, the man is the older partner.

Months after his death my mum has had no correspondence from Capita with regards to her spouse's pension although they returned the death certificate in December. What was presumably a simple task (take my dad's pension figure, halve it, and there you have my mum's pension figure) has now become much more complicated. There will now also be arrears and I assume interest and possibly compensation to calculate. There will also be the tax implications of income bunching to consider. For my 81-year-old mum it is all just too much.
