You'll probably end up on a naturist's butty.

Re: Ashes to Ashes; Dust to Daisies

I suppose this is predictable really, but I've given strict instructions that my ashes should be scattered on the Clayton End.

Re: Ashes to Ashes; Dust to Daisies

when my Dad died we split his ashes so we could spread him in a number of places

he loved theLakes so theres some of him overlooking Tarn Howes

he loved the IOM so theres some in the park in Douglas

he loved the sea so theres some of him out at Fleetwood where we spent many happy holidays

they loved holidays in the caravan at Carnforth so we popped some there as well.

The rest well, we all got a film cannister full to keep where we want. I've carried mine under the seat of my motorcycles as he loved bikes and encouraged me into them for which I'm grateful.

I'm not sure where I fancy being spread. probably somewhere in teh Trough of Bowland as I love riding my bikes up there and a bit somewhere in Accy as I'm proud of where I come from.

After death rituals are for the benefit of the bereaved - to assist the grieving process.

If the deceased leave instructions to be followed, it is best to follow them, just in case the 'dear departed' has 'hung about' to see that they were;), and as a gesture of respect.

The fumes there are not condusive to spiritual ascension - so NO
or maybe - because I reckon I will be well on my way and not looking back:D

Have threatened my husband in the past and will continue to do so (whenever he annoys me), that his ashes will be thrown at Turf Moor (He's a Blackburn supporter.)
