How to die

There are some cuttings tucked into my battered copy of The Oxford Book of Death (recommended, by the way). This fell out when I was looking for something today. I especially liked the bit about leaving something that doesn't exist to a greedy relative, so s/he spends the rest of his/her life looking for it. Yes, that's a bit mean, I know.

  1. I loved that... especially the part about 'having your dress tucked in your knickers'. Guy Browning certainly has a unique way of getting across the things that matter.
    Thanks for sharing!

  2. I think I might leave money to a local curry house so my wife can have a spicy time after I have left the table.
