I probably have. It will be chipped to buggery and he has sentenced himself to a lifetime of nit picking over it. My Mum still shouts at the pot of ashes about the chipped tiled floors in our house.

I did indeed look at the named thread  char067, but it appeared to contain photos as a form of surrogate progress report on the chimney project chez Barman.

I'm sure he knows what he's doing  rubschin:

For my family it is however I understand that for others it isn't. The fact that the pot of ashes lives in the living room is probably odd enough for most people. Once they find out we all talk to it they pretty much give up on us.  redface:

Then why is there debris on the floor!  Banghead

More boxes needed! Otherwise you end up with a four foot square area that is pristine but dents scattered further afield.  Banghead ::)

I'm sure Marley will have the definitive opinion on the matter.

Indeed, indeed!

I have to inform you that this ash fetish is a waste of time. Once done with the corporeal body, we (the wraiths of the world) have no further use for it. It is up to you what you do with it - some use it to promote the growth of roses, others scatter it to the four winds. Still others put it to good use - I am reliably informed that there are a number of egg-timers created this way.

As far as we are concerned, it is of no further interest other than purely academic.

That do you Snoops?

My Mum said in her will that she wanted her ashes scattered. Trouble is, she didn't say where. That caused some arguments!

Seems fairly pointless given Marley's opinion ~ nobody is listening.
 rubschin: Situation normal then I guess.



Mrs S says she doesn't nag ..... just repeats herself as she is sure my memory span is short. ::)

"Because I am busy doing something else. It is on my schedule for 3.25."

Doesn't work though. Why does it always have to be "NOW"?

Am I mistaken in (mis-) rembering that this character carried someones ashes around with them?

Yes. Because she is female, See also "Female Mindset" ("we can multi task.") No you can't. you just do 47 things at once badly.

What's worse is the change of subject without me being able to spot the join.  I am then in possession of 30 minutes of useless information because I thought she was referring to something earlier.  ::)

"Well, I was talking about holidays, but I was thinking about conferences." She said "Can't you keep up?".

Oh yes, that one too.

The killer question is:

"So, what do you think?" I refer to the last question asked and answer that, but she is three back.

So I say, "Yes, buy it." And she says, "We were talking about the LIverpool Empire."

I give up!
