Due to Svens death and reading about where he wants his ashes scattering, have you given any though to where you'd like yours scattering?
Weve done it for four family members, very discreetly, not officially, but exactly where they wanted, mostly sadly and and soberly, but on one occasion quite 'Monty Python'.

A realistic compromise would be somewhere in the huge estate, where the hospital I was born in is.

A friend of mine wants his scattered off a mountain in Scotland and I am the executor. I may not do it myself, but I'll do my best to ensure that if he goes first, his wish will happen - I have called him many names for this since I am not sure I can drag my sorry carcass up a mountain.
My wishes are that my ashes are scattered in three places dear to me. But I'm not too bothered because those are just the mortal remains.
Cremation must be very wasteful of energy - does the Green Party have a policy on it? A forest burial would seem to be a better end. Composting corpses may be a future method of disposal but it takes time & specialist equipment.
Apart from the fact that I get very seasick I think "lost at sea" would be a good way to go - consumed by the fishes.
Or by birds as in Himalayan celestial "burials".
