Have you made plans for after you die ?

What's it to be ? A white carriage with 4 white horses, and a marching band, and a big party after you're buried with everyone it's such a shame, and what a nice person you'd been .

I had a solicitor here yesterday, and she asked me that question. I told her i'm not religious in any way, i rarely see my Sisters, so couldn't see the point of a funeral. I said i'd like to donate as much of my body as useful, and even the bits that are worn out could go to students to cut up and practise on. Anything that was left, i thought could go in the wheelie  bin on Sunday night, the binmen come of a Monday morning.

So that's what she wrote in the will, except for the last bit, she said you aren't allowed to put body parts in the bin.

  • Hmm my will … hasn’t been witnessed yet. I don’t have enough friends to have 2 I’m the same room at the same time. It’s very simple. My brother is both executor and beneficiary. There is a request that I be buried near my home town without a fuss. There is a separate letter of wishes asking him to let my friends and old acquaintances take mementos from my possessions. A request that my data and notes be preserved for my friends to see if they wish (my internet history can hardly hurt me when I’m dead). A suggestion that my books be donated to a local library that will keep them. That my car not be scrapped (I’d rather it go to someone who’ll drive it).
