What do you want written on your gravestone?

"He came. He saw. He went away again."

Or what about a simple "EH?"

finally published..............

oh i think ... "tried to be human ... and failed" ...

"I'm not dead you bastards!"

How about 'Better luck in the next incarnation, eh?'

....I always smell like this.

Whoops. my post should follow Stormy's, otherwise it doesn't make sense.

SLIGHTLY off thread ...but ... tonight my son (13) suddenly said apropos of nothing .... "mum .... do you want to be buried or castrated?"

Beneath this sod lies a bigger one.

He saw He conquered He came

Go for the second option, Fish. More difficult to execute (you bein' a female an' all).

Hi, I cremated my father today and here is his epitaph from me: Remember the good, forget the bad, Remember the happy, never the sad, Always the laughter, never the tears, All of the memories, throughout the years. These are the things that I will recall, After the pain has started to fall, So my dear Dad you had to fly, Off to Bonny Scotland, with the softest sigh. You may have gone in body and in soul, And with your leaving, you left a huge hole, But I am so happy, that you were my Dad, 'Cos you made me happy, and never sad. Remember I love you, wherever you are, And with you in heaven, there's a bright new star. Give 'em Hell Dad, Goodnight and Bless You. AJ xxxxx

suggesting for mr. randall's headstone "he always had an opening for a boy"

Where's that friggin' Hopkirk got to?

Oh dear, death is certainly not becoming you two. Put down your spurring wreaths before you bust the lilies.

suggestion for eric's headstone: "it was bongo related"

suggestion for tony cook's headstone "pip final pip"

Beautifully deflected m'dear

I always find it amusing that in books and films the dying always manage to spout layer upon layer of profound/witty/plot-enhancing dialogue. Sometimes they witter on for ages. I'd just say 'bugger off' and be done with it.

My head was always stoned I was 76 when I died. I blame it on all those dangerous drugs. Let that be a lesson to you all. And remember folks: 'turn up, talk crap, drop dead'

i came i saw i conkered

can you tell the difference?

"She died, like a fly hit with a flyswatter."

suggestion for eddie's headstone: "crushed by his adoring fan(s)"

one's on the dark side of the road

Bugger!

yes please!

i think i would like mine to say "she looked after her plants" however it is unlikely ...

Not sleeping, but dead.

here lies robert aged 138 only the good die young

rejoice! rejoice! rejoice!

Better late than never...
