  • 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.

      This is a bad ass tombstone. http://www.onelargeprawn.co.za/2009/04/30/now-thats-a-badass-tombstone/[^] Personally, "Sometimes you eat the bar..." "See you soon." "Who turned out the lights?"

      I didn't get any requirements for the signature

If I was a Buddhist I could have "Back in a Minute", for example.

                                        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.

                                        "Head shot!" or "Monster Kill!!!" or any other classic UT phrase. At my funeral I want everyone to sing 'In the Jungle', just for sh*ts and giggles really.

                                        My failometer has shot off the end of the scale! I seem to have misplaced my ban button.. no wait... found it!
