    Ah! But most people believe programmes such as CSI and NCIS where they usually say the person buried in a coffin has about six hours of air! :doh:

        You're assuming that there'd be anyone to call and that they'd want me dug up again :heehee:

            I've told my family that I want to be 'crisped' :blue thumb: and then scattered in the 'family' plot with a entry in the 'book of rememberance'.

            Don't want to get all ethereal - but I think there must be something more after we've popped off. :scratch:

              Cremated and ashes put in a classy urn to haunt t'other half :hapfeet: ... that's assuming I go first! :whistle: We are having our English Wills transferred to Portuguese as things are different here and must specify such. Apparently, if you are buried you must move the body after five years :scratch: to where :noidea: but we have always preferred cremation. You can be buried in days here but weeks before a cremation as there are not many facilities available and I think our nearest is above Lisbon, three hours away! :hate-shocked: Then again, we could be buried in the garden with all our cats ... our ashes, that is. :cat-kittyandsmiley:

                          Not sure that would work with me - not enough blood in my alcohol stream to let it freeze :biggrin:

                            "here lies a proper blood fish and bone fertiliser" (that is - if you want to have a joke about it...But, if not, I would incorporate "kindreds spirits" in a sentence, in some shape or form...
