Re: When you go.........
I'd like to the buried but I'd like to entrust my coffin to the hands of sight-impared removalists so I can be sure I'd be dead once I reached the graveside.

Re: When you go.........
Viking or ashes just dumped anywhere, not fussed. They can do with me as they want. We had dad cremated and then the Mother decided to scatter his ashes over the rhododendrons he loved. Unfortunately the next day the gardener came and did his stuff and as he was leaving, told the Mother that someone had had a bonfire and he'd had to brush the ashes off the rhododendrons as they looked all mucky. Dad went off with the bin men the next day. He'd have laughed, we did.

Yeah, my dad's family are all mid-wales - Brecon, Knighton, Llandrinddod, places like that, and he always wanted to have his ashes scattered up on the Beacons where we've spent loads of time over the years. Beautiful spot, very windswept and no-one to disturb him but a few hikers and the local sheep population!!

Take the spare bits
Burn the rest
Throw ashes in the ocean
No funeral - I just wouldn't enjoy it

Re: When you go.........
do what you want with my remains, i doubt i'll be overly concerned!
On a serious note i'd like my ashes scattered down the dragstrip from either a topfuel dragster or a hydrogen peroxide rocket bike on a full power pass ,since despite my best efforts its the only conceivable way im ever going to get a ride in one
