Cemetery How Much Longer?

[EDDIE51]

There has been an ongoing row in our small town for more than 20 years over the lack of a cemetery. The one we have is full and the only place for an other one is considered 'too small' for the demand. Council say that if this site is not suitable the next option is to use one in a town 15 miles away.
This has caused comments that it would be too far to travel to visit a grave.
My point is, in a world of ever growing population how can we spare land that could be used for housing or agriculture, to bury dead people?
Cremation should be compulsory do we agree?

EDDIE that is a really unpleasant comment. Shame on you.

Eddie....be careful...you will only set off AOG !

(tongue in cheek remark ! )

It was meant as a joke but also to poke a bit of fun about some of the views on immigrants I see on AB, sorry no offence intended.

Eddie...I understood your little joke, so don't worry ! Irony is not always easy to understand without seeing the person using it.

I think I could live with my loved ones ashes in the house.

Naomi....I'd do that. I would have done it if my dad allowed me to cremate him. Cremation was a big fat no though.
