Funeral Planning

Discussion in 'Lounge' started by PerryL, Aug 18, 2020.

  1. Amongst all of the crap that I get on my emails - and I assume that it is targeted - I get pictures of upset wrinklies because their family have to pay for their funeral - they don't as they have snuffed it!

    My view - and i must be me - is that I don't give a stuff after I have snuffed it. Not my problem and I don't care what happens to my body - landfill, bonfire, local dump, who cares?

    Right now, any spare dosh needs to be spent on fun things- not looking arsed off as your funeral isn't paid for!

    According to Google, I am wrong. Oh dear, what a pity, never mind...

  2. One thing you don’t seem to have considered (and I got a bollocking for not considering it) is your funeral could very well be part of the grieving process for those close to you that you leave behind. Andy

  3. Couldn't agree more. Funeral, graves etc aren't for the person that's gone but for everybody left behind.

  6. When I die I am pretty sure there will be a couple of grand lying around so noone who wants to be there will have to buy their own drink. That's enough for me.

  7. Blimey, how old are you?

    I’m only getting ads for incontinence pants. I’m obviously not ready for funeral plans yet :p

  8. Just a little ray of sunshine today :sun:
     
  9. So they want it, then they should pay for it themselves! LOL.
     
  10. Yup, I have a gmail address that seems to dominate my Android phone. I think (but don't know) that is is the combination of gmail and Android that is my downfall. I have a Yahoo address but hat will be no better. Uncertain whether to just dump Android or pay for
    posh!
     
  11. I agree with the OP. spend as little as possible with these bandits, my will states a no frills gig and a wicker box buried under a tree. The funeral game is a con. Spend it whist you are alive to enjoy it, there are nae pockets in a shroud; I plan to die a poor man.

    Like Carnegie said, " he who dies a rich man dies in disgrace".

    I'll even put a few quid behind the bar for a few drinks for ma Pal, no more than three though!
     
  12. "incontinence" Oh, what joy! To be young enough to just be incontinent without having to die and book a funeral! Joy!!!

  14. 600 mm? What are you a midget? I'd need at least a 1000mm to accommodate my manly frame and barrel chest!

  15. This is really jacking me off now! I go to check when it's gonna stop raining and get I get a picture of a grumpy git worried about his "senior benefits"!

    All I wanna do is have some fun - sorry, that's a song! - all I want to do is check the weather!

    It's either Android or Apple. Has anyone with an Apple phone having to put up with this crap, or are Apple phones advertising free?
     
  16. Thought you may be going for a Beaker burial?
     
  17. What time is the sun coming up over Santa Monica Boulevard today?
