FalconFN Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 yeah that is straight up .....the area is a slight rise in the ground between two small oak woods................this will make you larf ...im quite looking forward to it.........i want everyone to have a few beers and a larf and keep warm by the fire and to keep me company whilst i go off ...sort of a saxon thing i guess... That is brilliant. I really like the idea, so much so I've looked up whether it is legal - and it is if you remove the deceased's fillings! I remember seeing the burning ghats in Varanasi and how amazing that was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felly100 Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 What about a Zoroastrian style end,pegged out and picked clean,first the crows would have your eyes,then the buzzards would get cracking. Foxes could be next. Bluebottles would have a crack. Don't know who would take care of the fillings though,possibly the magpies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 After my ex wife's demise, I plan to scatter her. I might even get her cremated first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welsh1 Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 As I will be dead I will not care,but have told the wife do it cheap no point in spending a load of money on a coffin only to bury it. I do like the idea of a cardboard coffin and buried in a nice wood ,or simply being cremated and ashes scattered on one of my permissions overlooking the sea. Hopefully I will not need any of these to come into effect for a long time to come I'm only a youngster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bb Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 no point in spending a load of money on a coffin only to bury it. I do like the idea of a cardboard coffin When organising my mother's funeral I noticed that all the "economy" coffins offered (pine, wicker & cardboard) were the same, not cheap, price. I also question, at cremations, how many of the "brass" fittings or even the coffin itself make it into the flames or are "recycled"?

Not sure if they would be re-used again though. The coffin does go in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
