Your epitaph
Spike Milligan wrote his own tombstone epitaph - "I told you I was ill". To me, that was brilliant and I believe they have put it on his headstone, in Gaelic.
What would you want on your headstone? I'm going to be cremated (not yet, I hope) but, if I were to have a tombstone, it would have to be along the lines of:- Here lies Cath, she did her best. She's gone to her Eternal Rest. She was a roaming Lanc'shire Lass. Now, walk on. Please Keep Off The Grass. What would you say?

Re: Your epitaph
I want my ashes scattered, so no tombstone. However, if I had one, it wouldn't say, like the spinster ex-postmistress "Returned unopened"!
I think I'd like "Whooarr!" |

Re: Your epitaph
At the moment i'd probably want never again, but when i've got rid of this hangover and after a good nights sleep it would probably be something totally differant. As yet i don't know what, shall have to think on that one.
