        What about medical research, or an option "I don't care, I will be dead"?

          yeh - I forgot the 'Other' option... you can just say it... I don't really know what is the right thing for me to do... my family tradition is proper burial, but heck its soooo expensive. But I don't fancy getting BBQed either.

            You’re in a cheery mood SandyDown.

            I don’t want the medical profession butchering me for any reason. If there are mysterious circumstances they can stay mysterious and me intact ta very muchy. My preference would be an old fashioned send-off, e.g. being eaten by a wolves/lions or some such. Nice and environmentally friendly, but not likely. Next best may be cremation, but done like in third world countries, i.e. straightaway, no messing about with morgues or extended rituals/funeral. The main thing is to avoid the ghoulishness of the medical profession, undertakers, etc, and the money involved.

              I want mine to be used for necrophilia.
              Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

                  I've said it before and I'll say it again:

                  Cremated, with my ashes mixed into the recipe for a Death by Chocolate cake, to be served at my wake.

                    You might have to get in there quick

                    With all the CO2 emissions that are caused by cremating people, how long before our Government decide that cremation must be banned?
