  • H Henry Minute

    Apart from someone elses' name, or Spike Milligans' "I told you I was ill!" I have just listened to a radio programme on BBC Radio 4 that had Roger Law of Fluck and Law (Spitting Image) fame in it. Peter Fluck, it seems has moved down to the West Country and taken up stone carving. He apparently told Roger Law that he was making them both a headstone. Rogers' would say "Roger and Out", whilst his own would say "Petered Out". So I was wondering, if you could pick your own epitaph (max 5 words), what would you choose? If I was a Buddhist I could have "Back in a Minute", for example.

                                Well, my most used quote is "Meh, I've seen better". I would appreciate if somebody put that on my gravestone - although I wouldn't request it myself. Because clearly, I'm too awesome. (Quite literally- people see me and collapse to the floor in awe)

                                My current favourite word is: Delicious!

                                      Apart from someone elses' name, or Spike Milligans' "I told you I was ill!" I have just listened to a radio programme on BBC Radio 4 that had Roger Law of Fluck and Law (Spitting Image) fame in it. Peter Fluck, it seems has moved down to the West Country and taken up stone carving. He apparently told Roger Law that he was making them both a headstone. Rogers' would say "Roger and Out", whilst his own would say "Petered Out". So I was wondering, if you could pick your own epitaph (max 5 words), what would you choose? If I was a Buddhist I could have "Back in a Minute", for example.
