very interesting but strange day today. Visit to Oxford crematorium.
Did you know it takes 1 hour to burn 10 stones?
More than about 35 stones and the coffin won't fit through the doors of the furnace...
The bucket of coffin nails, hips, knees and other joints (collected during the day and buried respectfully once per week) was very, very strange.
You come into the world without implants, and you leave it without them.
Lots to process...

It is of great comfort to know that the metalwork in my arm will one day be in a mass grave of medical implants. What do you think historians in 3000 years will make of in when they dig up lots of metalic bits - perhaps that we were all Borg like in the ancient days, or had many knees and hips.
