"This is like watching his birth again," I said as his head finally popped through. I meant to mutter it to myself but it came out more in the style of a public service announcement. My mum, wife and daughter were unimpressed. I won’t ask what colour the jumper was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, a simple elevated wooden platform inserted into a semi-ruined broch overlooking a distant firth and mountains would be fab. This will only be possible if @jamamafegan manages to include giers and vultures in his plans for the rewilding of Scotland. They have vultures in those places whereas we have have scorries... I always said I wanted a mysterious blonde with big tits to turn up to my funeral and have folk guessing. This living funeral doesn't seem such a bad idea now... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This living funeral doesn't seem such a bad idea now... I remember a comedian having a similar idea with a group of random well-dressed men escorted by blokes who looked like G-Men, with the earpieces and sunglasses. Leave everyone thinking you'd been an important spy on the sly. I like the American idea of body farms - leave your corpse rotting in a field somewhere where the decay can be studied. Apparently it comes in very useful for working out when murder victims were killed and suchlike, plus it obviously does away with any need for a funeral. Unfortunately, the government have blocked the idea here so far, presumably to avoid the Mail/Express headlines of "IMERGANTS LAUGH AS BRITS ROT IN FIELDS ALSO HOUSE PRICES", and also to limit @mathematics' missus' access to human bones. Edit: f**k living funerals though. Bad enough knowing that nobody would show up to my funeral without having to actually watch it happen.

There has been a huge decrease in the number of vultures in India, most likely caused by the use of diclofenac on farm animals. This has had a knock on effect on the Zoroastrian/Parsi community, the bodies in their towers aren’t being eaten.
