Putting the Fun in FuneralSome deaths come suddenly or too soon and can really hit hard, others seem to be a blessed relief. Similarly, some funerals can be deeply upsetting and sad, others can make you want to hug the world.
Mmm, don't want to bring you down or anything, but tell us your funeral stories...

C'mon baby light my fire...Got into trouble with the wife at her father's funeral last year.
Quite often on long boring journeys, or while drunk, the wife and I compile playlists; Best movie themes, best rock ballads, top singalong hits and recently least appropriate songs for funerals and cremations.
Crematorium chapel near Oxford, the Father-in-law's coffin is retreating behind the curtains on the way to the burners and the missus fixes me with such a stare as I whistle or hum my way through "Come on baby light my fire", "Relight my fire" and "Feeling hot, hot, hot"
