Bloody hell, people in my facebook feed posting pictures of visiting graves

[Classic Jorge]

I hate graves at the best of times, I dont visit them and I dont really like the whole burial business, but seriously who posts photos of them at graves on Facebook?

RIP Dad LOL etc

Do you want the dead rendered for their fat to grease the tractor factory machinery?

very interesting and gives a good historic flavour and understanding if you drag along your child..show them how easy they have it, the inevitability of death , not to be scared of it and to celebrate it..a lesson your dad obviously never gave you imo

Far better to get cremated and scattered somewhere nice, return to the matter we're all made of with some dignity and grace.

Also, reduces the possibility of coming back as a zombie, which is key

It's a bad as burning coal.

Visiting the grave of a famous person could have enormous benefits to ones self conscious.

Like Ghandi's for instance.

Instead you're all shipped out to grief malls in godforsaken places like Finchley and left in a Somme-esque field of other cadavers with some sad, wilting flowers and a trite inscription.

It's awful, talk about forcing people to remember death over life. A horrible business all round.

Anyway, it's all good carbon. Far better than a damp, mouldy purgatory where the best you can hope for is worms and the odd mole.

And Marx is a properly inspirational chap

graves...I assumed it was just the miracle of new medical tekkers..rather than the fact we dont bury them anymore. Well old graveyards are good..ill have to avoid an opinion on the others..though I did run past a " Natural gravesite" the other days near henley ? very new ? was wondering if you could just pull up and dig a hole ?

You may be right. It just seems unlikely. All those worms and bugs are going to go mental on your carcass and spread your goodness everywhere.

Planning ahead?
You can reserve your plot in advance, either singularly or as a group; in both cases, there are a number of payment options available to you. The current price for full burial is £1020, and for ashes burial £510. Payments can be made in full, alternatively you can pay a deposit now and spread the remaining costs over 10 or 20 months. Prices are reviewed each Ap

as it seems like you could just keep piling em up, especially if you dig nice n deep to start with..
