I did'nt really expect to,from what he told me they only turned up when he was sick to see what he had anyway.I thought he was a great bloke,and i liked him straight off,he had lived a really interesting life but was quite lonely ,he kept on wanting to pay to fly me and my bike over the pond and just go riding with him.

Reminds me of my sisters ex-husband. He wanted to be buried on Long Island when he died in Florida, but my nieces cremated him and kept the balance for themselves. I wonder if they put him in with the kitty litter. Life can suck, then you die. My advice is to spend everything when you're alive.

A mate of mine died broke a few year's ago,and there was a whip round for the headstone, funeral, and the piss-up after,we all raised a fair bit of cash and gave it to his sister,she turned up at the graveside in a brand new car,but never made it to the pub,where she should have put money over the bar,because she was busy getting the car ferry to France for a 2wk holiday.
