WTF is that all about then? Letter in Saturday's Torygraph. See also: Please come to the funeral dressed in football kit.
Sir - As a crematorium organist, I see, hear and have to play too many awful things (Letters, August 30).
We get travesties of Somewhere over the Rainbow and Danny Boy sung by wailing pop singers; mourners who are embarrassed to be there; men in shirt-sleeves with the tails hanging out; gum-chewing; noisy chatter and laughter; clergy asked to take a service without mentioning God.
One funeral recently ended with a large mechanical croaking frog being placed on the coffin. The lack of dignity and respect is appalling.

I think as they all had to come in football kit the least they could have done was arrange a match at the graveyard afterwards? whistle:

It could explain a few things point:

Where can you get hold of a large mechanical croaking frog, anyway? It's our wedding anniversary this weekend.

I bought Mr Wench a motion sensor ceramic croaking frog from The Natural World a few years ago. redface:

Why? And it was solar powered a minute ago. Is it or isn't it?!

Borrow one from your mate Macca ~ he'll do anything for a hobnob (allegedly)

One less to worry about then ey? happy088
At least you remember, I have to ask Mrs Growler every June for the exact date.
It always a source of great annoyance to her, especially when I casually reply that i have more important things to worry about.
Always goes down a treat that one. ::)

Jolly good. I am surprised you are still alive!

Please accept my heartfelt congratulations/commiserations (delete as applicable).

My idea of celebrating my wedding anniversaries has always been to go back to the registry office and punch the Registrar. boxing
I am 60 and have (with a break of two years or so in the middle) been married since I was 19.
What's to celebrate? I'd have only got 30 years for robbing a f*cking train.
