The video evidence is still on YouTube, in fact: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4C4VmKgP_o

Now that's what I call a funeral Kevin. :y That hearse driver wasn't hanging around.  :o ;D

Watch it every time Kevin posts it (well, I've certainly seen it before somewhere) - brings a tear to the eye every time.

Not sure what I'll do for mine.. procession of office wheeley chairs, maybe? ;D
Maybe you'll have finished the Cobra by then.  ;)

Yes. You'd imagine that a young stud about town like Aaron would have pulled his finger out by now. :)

I have told my family I don't want a funeral. Don't see the point of them tbh. Send my carcass to the crem, then do what they want with the ashes. Doesn't matter to me.  :)
Its weird being the same age as old people !

I imagine you'll be past caring. ;)

Back in those days of course you didn't buy a Bentley[or other "posh" car]as such you bought the rolling chassis and had it shipped to your favoured coachbuilder to body it how you wanted.The style that most[all?] think of when thinking of the "blower"Bentleys etc was by Van den Plas and was in fact the cheapest of the coachbuilt body styles.

When my cousins wife passed her last wish was for her trip to the crem to be alone, no hubby or mourners.

Bloke I know's Dad left instructions for them to do the bare minimum legally allowed for his funeral and spend as little as possible.  :)

I think they had to get the Funeral Directors to collect the body from the hospital as the hospital wouldn't let them take it.  Him and his brother knocked up a plywood coffin and went to the Funeral Directors to get their Dad (very early in the morning at the request of the Funeral Director!  ;D) and they took him to the crematorium in the back of his Volvo estate and they just left him there!  ::)

They had a memorial do in a local pub though and I believe the ashes sat on the bar!  :y
RIP Paul 'Luvvie' Lovejoy
