Also dead!

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 02/12/2025 19:03

Scattered ashes somewhere, probably (illegally) in the Isabella Plantation in Richmond Park.

TheGrimSmile · 02/12/2025 19:29

At 104, probably dead.

Having been on this thread from the start...is this Mumsnet typical? That literally we are all over 50, to answer as we mostly have, ie dead. Or is this thread a weird subsection!

Enrichetta · 02/12/2025 23:20

Very, very dead…….LOL

Enjoy life while it lasts 😹

Thank you!

AFAIK you’re not supposed to spread ashes there. However a year or so ago we deposited both DPs among the azaleas, but off the beaten track. Poor old DF had been waiting over 20 years, DM for 10, but a DSis could never agree on where to put them, and couldn’t make any sensible, practical suggestions.

Downloaded into an AI run spaceship and rapidly leaving the solar system to explore the galaxy.

I’ll be 79. Not sure what I’ll be doing, hopefully enjoying being retired and enjoying seeing my kids and grandkids maybe! Maybe going on some cruises - quite fancy a cruise. The ones where old people go on little walks and excursions. I will do that.

ZenNudist · 02/12/2025 23:46

Dead or nearly. Possibly a sprightly 94yo

Nourishinghandcream · 03/12/2025 00:18

We will both be ash, mixed together and scattered in our chosen location.🌻

Very old 108

Matilda56 · 03/12/2025 00:53

Dead or 128

MN still has plenty of members with babies, so we can't all be this old! I am, though. It would be interesting to see what life is like in 2095 but, all things considered, I'm quite glad I won't.

I'm surprised I'm still here 😎 I did the "live fast" part of the equation, skipped the "die young" part and have settled into a holding pattern. I want to hear how all the Young People picture their older years!

Dead and in the firey pits of hell. I certainly won’t be off to the pearly gates of heaven.
