According to google ok

With respect to Claudia (RIP) and Capts..
I should have asked Google instead of listening to the cremation services I suppose...however ...so........ lets leave it there

When our dog died, we decided to sprinkle his ashes in all his favorite places...rivers, lakes, forests...even surprising places like his favorite motorway services...and it included the sea in his favorite bay. It involved a tour of the whole country (we restricted it to one country even though he was a well travelled dog)...and it actually took two years to complete.

Whilst mate on a coaster the ship was charged with taking the owners wife and board members out into the Solent to scatter the ashes ofthe late managing director….havinf set the course the skipper joined the group in the waist of the ship due to a slight change inthe wind I was forced to alter the course saving the managing director coming back through the openscuppers

And, @billskip , busy here too, 22 Deg. The owner of a Bavaria 36 I drank onboard last night is heading over your way. He was trying to persuade me I should take up sailing.

My dad is under various trees and rose bushes, in his favourite fishing stream and on the beach at his childhood holiday home. There was sod all left by the time we actually interred him in the family plot.

A couple of weeks ago we scattered the ashes of my FIL in the gardens of a Buddhist temple.
He was really skinny and severely underweight when he died. Think of the Belsen look.

I was surprised that there was so much ash to scatter.

The majority of the ashes will have been from the coffin.

I thought the coffins were recycled and sold again...

I don’t want to go in a coffin that a dead person has been in

Dont IKEA do one,put it together before you kick the bucket!

Putting together an IKEA flat pack will ensure that you live at least two days longer

You will never know...

As this matter falls within my professional area of competence, I can assure you that the link is accurate. Bodies don’t get removed from coffins when they’re cremated.

Reading the link in post 1354 just make sure that you die in the UK ! It mentions renting ornate coffins in Africa but kept quiet about France

 

[Bouba]

How many here would rather be laid to rest on their fly bridge....until the elements have sufficiently decomposed you that the rain can rinse you away?

So the urn on the sideboard has uncle Ted and a few pounds of MDF!
