  2. They really are a bunch of parasitic bastards, aren’t they, David? And it’s all legal and buyer beware and so on, dressed up to kill, or make a killing, as it were. A con job worthy of the Orange dRumpf.

  3. Excellent piece Dave, an industry screaming out for further scrutiny. My wife passed away 16 years ago and we’d agreed on the cremation, ashes return option followed by a celebration of life with over 400 friends at a private facility………a fitting send off!

  4. Farewelled a friend a couple of years ago, cremated in basket adorned with native flora, untainted by religion, which she’d arranged in person, music ‘White Rabbit’ & ‘Born to Run’.
