    It's My Funeral, so...

    Well, we've had marrieds, unmarrieds, nearly marrieds, so time for funerals.

    What do you fancy?

    1. Standard burial
    2. Themed burial e.g. all mourners in footy gear
    3. Cremation
    4. Pickled in vinegar
    5. Dry-cured
    6. Donated to med. science (i.e. skull used as ashtray in junior med. digs)
    7. Remains fired off into orbit
    8. Made into a pie a la Sweeney Todd
    9. I will never die
    10. I am AndyW

    (buggered up this poll, but never mind).

    No black clothing - it's meant to be a celebration of life, not a commiseration of death.

    Ooh. Was that a bit serious for a Monday morning? I've been making arrangements this weekend and it's a bit morbid-making.
    Have patience. In time, even grass becomes milk.

      I think you need a tiddly bit more positive mental attitude if you are going to make it in the land of ice and ravenous polar bears!

        Oh trust me, I'm full of happy thoughts

        As a general thought, if you're ever looking to feel negative I strongly recommend trying to organise your own funeral!

            Buried at sea, might as well make a day of it

              I want an animatronic do, where my mechanically reanimated cadaver will circulate telling all attendees what a bunch of c***s they are followed by self-immolation.

                Is there VAT on funeral services?
                How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

                  Cremated on a funeral pyre made of signed off timesheets.

                    Not a P4 bod, then? They'd have just enough to light a fag.
