Today I am covering burials in Newport cemetery all day and it’s on a hill fully exposed to the wind and rain 😬 I’m frozen and soaked through as usual so my thinking is if I was dragging branches about at least I would be warm 😂 I can’t be everybody’s cup of tea lovely Khriss otherwise I would be a mug 😁 what would you do if you could start again and choose a new path ? 

Dont ask THAT question   😬  firstly, though, still start in For then before yr crippled move to Arb then some sort of upper level where you can influence things. Training or Management or Design. Think you should get a bit of conifer felling in if just fr a couple weeks to get you bent over. Will give you confidence on a saw and set you up for pace of other work, also used to the bits n bobs of keeping a saw running well. Obvs mentoring is important in this. Be tiring but it is for everyone as the body aint normally used in this way. K

I didn't know there was much money in funerals till I was talking to a guy who set one up. Now its a bit saturated but you can do two or even three a day if its cremations. Handy if a member of your family is a mechanic to service the cars but it surprised me as well as window cleaning. 😉

Bloody fortune!! Just gonna pile myself into concrete flyover in the Series II, an they  can weigh in wots left 😁  K

I've got the hole dug in the garden, all she has to do is fill it in and keep claiming the pension 😳

£300 sounds like a bargain to me!

My Dad always said just stick him in the trailer and take him to the local tip. When the time came my mum insisted he went in a hearse to the churchyard

My uncle is a designer, among everything from trains to pens to parking meters he also designed a bookshelf:

 

 

"Leading product designer Ken Grange points at a bookcase. 'I designed this in the shape of a man,' he says. 'When I die, all my wife has to do is chuck out the books and put me in instead. That's real design for recycling."

Another thing up our street is wicker coffins at £300 a pop, don't know how long it would take to rustle one of them up. 🤔

I like these wicker ones 🙂

Was on site talking to someone about what spec we were cutting timber to. Guy said he had been on a site previous week and they were sawing to 4.53m. I wondered why such a specific number and the answer was you can get two 7ft coffins out of that length. 

Makes you wonder

[Khriss]

How odd, unless they are for some specific build project? Though coffins were composite material mostly 😕 K
