Morning everyone well done Coxy take care I hope you had a good nights sleep DP1 it’s understandable she doesn’t want to be backwards and forwards and the little one doesn’t want to have to go back but it’s good to know she’s improving what a talented dad you had . Gers hopefully you will be in less pain and things get sorted. Decorating is coming along great he will be finished today what a difference it looks lovely and I can’t praise him highly enough his glossing looks a lot better than my glossing it’s definitely been worth paying someone to do it even just to cut down on the arguing. I will need to get some washing done this weekend but we have been promised a fine one we will see . Thinking of all the poorlies hugs to those that need them have a good day everyone whatever you are doing

Morning, bright and sunny here.

Not a lot to report today, washing to do and housework.

I would like some advice if you dont mind. As I said, my friends dmum passed away last weekend. Before she died she said she wanted a Pure cremation, as my friend has 5 younger siblings and none if them get on, and she didn't want any trouble at a funeral. My question is, do Pure cremation give a date and time of the cremation? I know I can ask my friend, but she has more than enough to do sorting out mums affairs and house. I would like to sit quietly and raise a glass to happy memories. Sorry if this is a daft question,  but this is the first time I've known someone having this.

Dp1, hope little one continues to improve.

Love to all x

@Remmie - Pure Cremation is a brand  Many other companies offer the direct cremation which is what your friend means. My late DM asked for one so I used a local to her funeral director. I was told the date and time although attendance is not allowed.

Here's a thread from the Deaths board:

I've not been shopping - CBA and I have enough in.

Gers, thank you.

Pure cremation are who they are using as I believe her dm paid for it in advance so there were no arguments.
Very interesting reading the thread
