Is It Just Me
.
but, ever since seeing that Dave Allen sketch as kid, I can't keep a straight face at burials.

As soon as the Vicar starts to talk at the graveside it's running through my head.

"In the name of the Father, The Son and into-the-hole-he-goes...."


I'm doomed I tell you, doomed....

It isn't just you
Every time I have been to a funeral, when the vicar says "ashes to ashes" I can't help but sing "funk to funky, we know Major Tom's a junky" in my head.

Or
Ashes To Ashes
Dust To Dust
If The Worms Don't Get You
The Maggots Must...

And yes, I also get the Bowie problem.

Funerals are just hell for me...

Dave Allen will do that
If I'm talking myself through something in the kitchen and my girlfriend asks what I'm doing, I do reply "Just rehearsing, dear."

Funerals would be better if they all played Bowie as they lowered the stiff into the worm pit. Plus Dave Allen was a legend
