This forum is so predictable some times.
Nay, all the time.

Re: Gordon "Nodrog" Ross to be buried in a Tarantula
Number 10 is for Jonny, I'm sure. Also, I wonder if some of those are legal. I mean, you'd have to bury a pretty deep hole to get them all the way in.
I myself prefer something like this more. A touch of style never hurts in the afterlife

legal is up to that sovereign nation.
perhaps you mean within religious law? i doubt the papacy would approve yet despite their bizarre nature their makers seem to hold some belief in christianity.

Yes , its nice to know that after the Empire left them, the colonies continued to provide us with something, even if nowadays its just entertainment with their "Quaint" customs.

Yes, but looking at some of those caskets, there appear to be some around the height of 5'.
That means you'd have to go pretty deep, and although various countries will have different laws regarding burial, I do presume they all keep within certain limits that might be exceeded.
As for the Pope, look at the car he drives around in. He doesn't get to tell anyone what they can or cannot be dead in.

I refer to the whole of Africa as "The Colonies" , even bits which blatantly werent ours. Did you know that as a child, when i watched Paddington Bear, and he said he was from Darkest Peru, i thought that was somewhere in Africa.
Oh the innocence of youth

Re: Gordon "Nodrog" Ross to be buried in a Tarantula
There's a book about a Scottish guy who took over his father's undertakers, and managed to compete with the big under-takers by offering personalised coffins. It's a very good book, the author won a young-writers award but I can't for the life of me think of the name :|

Re: Gordon "Nodrog" Ross to be buried in a Tarantula
What's the significance of a Tarantula one btw? Yet another inhouse joke I missed?

Also, very cool site, many attempts including my own have been tried for some sort of pa repository, but I think a wiki is the best way to do it.

Re: Gordon "Nodrog" Ross to be buried in a Tarantula
It's a wiki, do it yourself.
djbass has allready picked it up fairly fast, and the more regular users we get there the better.
