The bishop was also concerned about the remains of those who had led "decent and wholesome lives travelling alongside those whose lifestyles had been morally lax".

rare agree with marshallrisky - cemeteries and even churchyards can be pleasant places to visit, and often are havens for wildlife. I'd always planned for my ashes to be scattered to the winds, but if I had to be interred I could live with the prospect of hobbies nesting in the trees near me in summer and goldcrests flitting amongst them in winter.

I’ve been to Brookwood and it is truly vast.
Must have been a bit barren in the early days, but now with all the trees and plants, it’s a lovely spot.

Love the bit about golfers disguising themselves as mourners to get cheap rail fare to their courses. Assume they transported clubs in coffins.

The Southern service from Brighton always appears to be carrying soulless corpses.
