I have left instructions I want to have my celebration at our favourite beach which can now only be accessed by foot - they donÔÇÖt need to take me just my ashes - but I want a BBQ like we used to have down there with all the extended family so the logistics of getting the requirements down to the beach might be a bit much - might have to be brought in by sea - have threatened to come back and haunt them if they take me to a funeral parlour - strict instructions they must all bring their dogs !
Not sure if this is too morbid but here goes - the night after my husbands funeral - my three grandchildren - who had all spoken at their grandads funeral asked if they could play the video - my oldest grandchild was trying to send it from her iPad to the TV when the grandfather clock struck - this clock had been threatened with being dumped - my Dad gave it to me but it never went - my husband was Mr Fixit and nothing ever beat him -no matter how much time he spent on it hopeless - could have taken it to a watchmaker but not him he preferred to curse and carry on and threaten the dump - anyway the blooming clock struck as she was trying to get the video to run - the younger kids didnÔÇÖt realise but my 16 year old granddaughter was stunned - the clock struck again when the kids were speaking on the video and struck again as his coffin was carried out - now I only believe in what I can touch or see or eat but that blooming clock has never struck again
