Would you?

[lady-janine]

yes. of course. bit of a problem if you then move two months after popping them in the ground though. do you exhume or what?

[tamborine]

When dead, sandy - lol

I doubt you would get permission to exude, you need very good reason to exude a body and you need permission from the Home Office.

I would do it myself but generally speaking I don't think it is a good idea.

[RATTER15]

^^ exhume

[kvalidir]

Yes that's my plan actually. I'd rather like a family Mausoleum were everyone I love is on our own property, I think it'd be lovely and I think it would help the grieving process to be able to pop down the garden for a chat.

[naomi24]

No. I don't want to be buried - and I wouldn't buy a house that had a grave in the garden.

[RATTER15]

I've dug a lot of graves in my time but never on private land. It would certainly knock value off the land if you wanted to sell it at a later date, and you can't just dig them up and move them. I have dug a few up as well.

[tamborine]

OHs ashes are scattered beside the gate entrance, to ward off trespassers. I wouldnt dig 6foot down for a burial without checking for gas/electric or sewer fittings.

[kvalidir]

That's a nice idea Tambo, a good compromise if you don't bury on your ground.

[Sqad]

Who cares?
Your'e DEAD and for a long time.

Burying pets in the garden is bad enough, but now HUMANS?

Not for me.

[lady-janine]

sqad - what is it o be wrapped in a silk hankie and buried at sea? or would you prefer being scattered at the bottom of the steps to your club?

[Sqad]

LJ.......the silk is rather ..."tempting".....LOL

[lady-janine]

behave sqad. just behave as I expect you to.

[tonyav]

Nope most certainly wouldn't. why devalue the property.

[lady-janine]

tony - what are you doing out of your shed at this hour? be careful minty doesn't catch you. i'll not tell her.

[tonyav]

Well I've gotta have a shower some time haven't I !.

[lady-janine]

oh sorry. i thought she had fixed up the hose inside for you. i'll have to have words with her.

[tonyav]

Somebodys nicked it, lj.

[lady-janine]
