          They need some money to publicize this. If only they had a spare billion.

            Surprised they don't use NNN - "Never! Never! Never!"

            Religion, what a lovely thing.

            I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

              Too Latin and therefore too Catholic I expect.

                Most religions use At Rest not Rest in Peace

                but I do not think many people are that fussed.

                    RIP is commonly written in NHS hospital ward diaries to indicate when a patient has died as an inpatient.

                    Probably bet not take the Orange Order too seriously.
