Perhaps someone can persuade Porton Down to paint that fence, it looks a bit scuffed.

I don't understand all this funeral shit. Someone dies. OK. It happens all the time. Nothing to see. Move along. Why would it be necessary to waste so much money either putting a body in the ground or burning it? I don't get it.

Never mind the Daily Mail Pitchfork Wielders will be at the ready. and so they damn well should be. If I lived there and that funeral was coming along outside my house, I would have a PA system continuously playing "another one bites the dust"

Why would it be necessary to waste so much money either putting a body in the ground or burning it? I don't get it. I think as much as anything it's about putting on a show of intimidation. Public sentiment would naturally be outraged by the cortege passing by the householder's property, which there is absolutely no need for it to do since he didn't even die there, and in the natural scheme of things the police would not allow it to do so. By routing it that way the travellers are clearly sending a message to the police- "you are powerless to stop us doing whatever we want" and both sides know that. It's also about sending out the message "It doesn't matter how much money we have, we will always survive purely by theft and intimidation" and it is in the nature of travellers to steal, it is as impossible to stop them doing it as it would be to train cats not to chase mice.

I understand all that but I also assumed the suggestion of doing a showy funeral passing the house was a satire story. Maybe it wasn't. In more general terms I do not understand why people pay so much money to get a dead body disposed of. It just seems very odd.

I understand all that but I also assumed the suggestion of doing a showy funeral passing the house was a satire story. In a way it is. Two sides goading each other on whilst the residents now just want to be left in peace. Even the Daily Mail has reported that the police have tried to calm the situation and the council have removed tributes to a more acceptable place yet the media/social media circus goes on. To borrow a phrase - won't someone think of the residents.....

I agree, and my children have instructions to dispose of my remains with the absolute minimum of expense when I kick the bucket. I'd be quite happy to be fed to the animals at Howlett's Wild Animal Park if they would take me off of my kids' hands free of charge.

Not sure if that's an option but it would be interesting to know what the lowest cost option would be short of self disposal/suicide by fire or Davy Jones locker. I've only been to one funeral which was my mother's. I was overruled by my sisters who insisted on a paid for blah blah blah burial so I went along with it despite knowing she would have hated it. I found the whole arrangement to be simply a shit parade of awful scum. There must be a minimal cost alternative. I suppose its cremation.

It used to be possible to leave your body to medical science, I'm not sure if that option still exists?

If they have that much money, why didn't they give some to Henry Vincent in the first place? Then he wouldn't have needed to rob anyone. how do you think they got rich in the first place? robbing is the default occupation for those rich scrotes, driving round in 18 reg. Range Rovers towing stainless steel caravans.

That's interesting. £2k is far too much money. Do they have it all sorted or is one allowed (as the executor of a will for example) to save some money by taking the body out to sea cable tying some scrap brake rotors to it then lobbing it in? Or is that illegal. Ah. Its a setup. No way to get around funeral expenses other than doing it yourself.

Chuck body in canal. Cost £0. only works properly if we can populate the canals with pirhana. in 'Deadwood' the recently demised were thrown to the pigs, thus being recycled.
