I`m afraid that is illegal as you will contaminate the sea, you must be cremated first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will point out to my son that he shouldn't put me on the bonfire till dusk, or the council will prosecute him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RentingForever Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Burial in a green cemetary with a tree planted on top, so I can be useful. Bodies are too wet for efficient cremation - takes far too much energy and not environmentally friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once they de-blood you, pump in the embalming fluid you go up faster than a rocket on November 5th. Crematories today are highly efficient environmental friendly and due not create gas as with a decomposing body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roman holiday Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Burial... in the hope of the resurrection. Plus cremation is too industrial. By the time I'm ready to depart, I imagine burial might be illegal in this country. Will ask in my will for a secret burial in the bush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonytramcar Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I have opted for cremation as it is the easiest and cheapest option for those left behind. I still have a hankering for burial though, as long as it were somewhere where , in hundreds of years time, my remains could be found and placed in a museum; a sort of anonymous immortality..
