    Lots of website on how to make your own coffin.

    One has a sponsored ad by devere hotels- is there a link between their guests and the imminent need for a coffin?

    I think the price is still a bit "stiff".

    .............they would be perfect for my new venture..........

    My dad wants a cardboard coffin. He went to ask at currys and they said no problem he should fit easily into 2 large appliance boxes joined with tape (he checked and one wasn't long enough but would do a shorter person)



    He also wants me to apply for permission for him to be buried in my garden to sAve more money. They turned him down at his house as it is in a national park/conservation area.

    To be honest, it's the "last thing" I'd want to be seen in.

    A local seller was on Ebay - £99, free collection and a pretty wicker one. Far nicer than this!
