If there was only one instruction you could leave to others, on your death , what would it be ?

Such a deep question for a Friday night 😃

Share the inheritance nicely. No arguing.

Have courage and be kind.

To my daughter. You are not welcome at my funeral. Stay away!

To my other 4 children. I have made a will. My house and assets are to be shared between the 4 of you. Spend it wisely and enjoy the rest of your lives. Until we meet again remember always that you have done me and yourselves proud. I love you now, always and forever. Thank you so much for being my children. You made my life complete 😘

DS - look after your sister
DD - your dad is a fuckwit, don’t pay him any attention, listen to your brother, he’ll look after you

Don't open the little pink case beside my bed. Just bin it.

Same but fairly large silver box

Any money that people were planning on using for flowers should be put in a pint glass behind the bar. Getting drunk off your arses would be the ultimate way to pay respects to me.

Wipe the bloody cooker top.

I was thinking that mine would be to encourage DH to remarry, but I guess that would make him feel properly crap if he couldn't manage to get anyone new interested in him!

Please outsource the emptying of my sock drawer, cheers.

Cremate me and mix my ashes with late DH's and scatter me into the Thames off Waterloo bridge. And fuck, please please someone - SIL, my cousin, my housemates - love my beautiful baby girl like she is your own.

God, the thought of leaving her alone in the world is fucking terrifying, as much as I long to be with DH again.

Dont cry, I'm with your dad now.

Don't dig up the patio.

This is quite heartbreaking, I'm so sorry for the loss of your DH.

I'm also sure your daughter will be adored should the worst happen, but you both have happy times ahead of you

I want to be buried so I become a tree. I dont know if thats possible in the UK though.

Woodland funeral - very expensive but it's still my money and I'm spending it!
And no nonsense about donations instead of flowers. I want flowers!

Parrrrty. 🥳🥂🍾

I've told DH I want a massive ott funeral work an EastEnders style procession through my hometown with an EastEnders style glass thing with flowers and white horses with plumes.

And then a massive pissup with anyone and everyone invited.

Dunno if he'll carry it off but I'll be dead, so.

I never do things by halves.

I'd like to be buried and provide sustinence for worms and flowers but there's no burial spots here. So I'd like to be scattered via a rocket into the air.

@Aposterhasnoname

My death bed instruction will be do not allow anyone to come and gawp at me in my coffin. DH and DD are very aware of this, and I even had it put in my will.

I might borrow this. I'd rather people remembered me alive (especially after seeing my FIL after he died, when supporting my DH... his body was just a shell).

I'd ask for "Desiderata" by Max Ehrmann to be read at my funeral and distributed to attendees. An uncle did the same and the words have stayed with me: mwkworks.com/desiderata.html

To my kids. Bugger! If you're reading this then I'm no longer around. Please verify that I am actually definitely dead before you cremate me or bury me, then get the whole hideous business out of the way and get on with enjoying what's left of your lives.

Be happy, try to enjoy your life.

Someone stole my Bill and Ted moment...

So, bereavement is fucking awful. Don't check on each other now. Wait six weeks, then six months then six years. Bring snacks, wine and a shoulder. Never forget each other. Forget me as soon as you'd like.

I'm a leaf on the wind.

Oh and read the physicists eulogy.

Bin day is Thursdays.
