I think we should buy an old folks home and bury each of us in the garden under a modest mausoleum of our own design with the coffin in a room surrounded by shelves.
When the last one dies, Purps can move into the old folks home and play with himself.
Hmmm each person would be buried in the centre of the mausoleum under a level 8ft by 5ft slab. Then each one could be themed to a specific period and/or scale, so they are usable as games rooms before any clog popping....

My money is on the Tudors. Tough chaps those Numidians, but we have the matchlock musket and they have not.

I've said before, The Holt, Retirement Home in nearby Hutton Buscle (known locally as God's village on't Hill), comes up for sale now & again. Room for 15 flats, dinning room, gaming halls, pleasant gardens for burials. Nice views. Etc.

We would need a minibus to get us back from the pub at night. A Polish cook with a cute teenage daughter to cook and clean, Taps for hot, cold, lager, bitter and turps.

A Polish cook? Isn't that considered cruel and unusual punishment?

Indeed - spuds with everything is a bit too close to home for me.

And beets, do not forget the beets.
Prefer a Signora, signorina or mama as cook.
