and you think coffins are well built mate! they arent, they shouldnt be able to charge the amount they do for them as i know exactly what goes in a coffin and how they are done.

biggest thing is to make sure a crem coffin has no metal in or on it!

i regret greatly not beeing older when my father passed away as he had been a funeral director and also did wedding cars which were sold off when he passed away ( i was 13 at the time) had i of been older it would not have bothered me to do that on top of college with my mother as everything was there. we oftern talk about it saying we wish we had had hindsight at the time and not felt the need to sell everything off!

although i must say when we were clearing out stuff from my nan's to open a workshop and find an old coffin at that ages was very creepy and slightly disturbing at the time dont know why as i knew there was no one in it and nothing that would hurt me but just felt odd.
