Plan WAY ahead and donate your body to science. Family isn’t stuck with a bill to the vultures. Cremation even costs way too much to pay people that prey on grieving family for something that is inevitable. And science benefits from your donation. Ultimate win.
We all went back inside for the food and mingling part, while they adjusted the metal bit at the top.
Eventually they came back and said it’d take longer than that as the sides of the hole would have to be altered so most of us left.
I swear we were there for about four hours in total. I don’t know if they’re all like that over there, but most UK funerals are like “welcome, hymn, eulogy, hymn, funny story, oven, drinks, home”. I find open caskets weird as well.

“science” doesn’t take every body, and I’ve outlived two of the three doctors who want to experiment on my corpse (much to their chagrin).

Also, tell the guy that digs the hole how big the coffin is including handles.
Because I went to a funeral last year where it didn’t fit.
Good God what happened then?
