  • 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.

      I was going to say that real men get the 'Meat Feast', but in all honesty that could be taken either way. So instead real me should just eat raw chillies on bread.

      My current favourite word is: Delicious!

                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)

This is an error. The engine can arrange and combine numerical quantities as if they were letters or any other general symbols; and it fact it might bring out its results in algebraical notation, were provisions made accordingly."

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.

                                    I'll have "Mist!" ("Crap!") And the tombstone will be in the shape of a bread with very short arms... (sic!) If you're wondering, google "Bernd das Brot" and his quotes...

                                      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?

                                      sort of those "famous last words" types: "this seafood smells dodgy" "damn this curry is killer" "do you think he'll bite?" "plant a cigarette when leaving"
