See-you-er
Memorial items for sale on display at Westerleigh crematorium, Bristol. We were especially struck by the post-modern iconography of the drain cover.
Hat tip to James for this.

Ain’t no urn in this world hold my ashes,
nor no gravestone keep the truth in my town,
just put a manhole cover down on my grave site,
so the boys will know the shit that went down.

Nice one, Jonathan! Sung to a slow, gritty and well oiled blues. I like your style!
