Funerals

My parents both planned their own funerals, to both of them it was part of the process of dealing with terminal cancer diagnosis. My mum also tried to pre-pay hers through a policy with Coop Insurance, but it's payout was topped up by her estate as there wasn't quite enough for a plain coffin, flowers, hearse & 1 car and cremation costs.0

Dagnabbit. My current coffee table is actually an Ikea table that I've attached wheels to. It's great, as it facilitates cleaning the floor, and is easy to drag towards guests as and when required.
If I had a coffin on wheels, it would be a coffee table with storage.
I KNEW I shouldn't have passed up on such a bargain. DURN! :rotfl:0 -

The wheels would have come in useful for pushing you up the aisle at your funeral too, save them having to carry you :rotfl:Accept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear0 -

Ye gods, this is brilliant. We've just developed a new product - the coffee table/blanket box/coffin. The Coffee-Blankie-Coffin? CBloffin?0
