I sadly lost a mate of mine last year to Skin cancer at the age of 28. At his cremation he requested Sunscreen by Baz Lurman followed by feeling hot, hot, hot! It made for a much lighter mood, especially watching the vicar cope with the irony of sunscreen!

I'd like my funeral to be like that, not a black, solemn event but more a party of my life etc. Everyone to wear bright clothes etc then goto the pub and get p!ssed afterwards

The Irish know how to do a funeral - at my Granny's wake we ended up singing 'til 7am the next morning....

Another reason why I avoid going out in the sun over here...mind you, after 10 years in Kenya and Saudi before coming here, its probably too late...but 28 is so young to die from skin cancer...tragic.

It's virtually a year to the day, we lost him on 1st April, sure he planned that too! Just had an Email from his widow, she's only 26 and married him 4 weeks before. Poor kid hasn't been coping too well and hasn't realised exactly how brave she's been.
