The other year my grandad went for a walk up there to try and find some of them but he was unsuccessful. I think there is a records office there who will tell you in what general area that person is buried. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will tell him but his knees have gone now so doubt he would bother. He still manages to go and buy records though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baselayers Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 What happens when there is no room left for more cemeteries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Personally I'd go for a Tibetan Sky Burial if we get to choose. Party time for all the Eagles. Plus think of all the erosion it would save from all the hikers not wanting to get to the top to look at corpses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted February 10, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted February 10, 2017 I always remember being slightly surprised when I learnt as a kid in many places your grave isn't so much an eternal resting place as a rented hole to rot in before being filed by bone type elsewhere. Presumably the Rapture will include lots of awkward milling about whilst people find their own tibias, to pinch a much funnier man's joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I barely posted anything the second half of last year but I was still on most days browsing as I have been for about 7 years now. I had quite a long sojourn from VT myself. Joined and posted a bit then didn't bother for ages. I don't even know why I started again to be honest or indeed why I stopped. My first several posts were to The General so l guess I was inspired to join to share my thoughts with him, but probably stopped when I realised it was a lie. I would think probably 70% of my posts have been in the last 2 years despite joining in 2006. The Understudy. Gringo, Villaajax are names that spring to mind and ME seemed mad as a box of frogs.

Xann Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Many died when the team was relegated. Then the survivors started eating each other. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xann Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 We're not allowed porn. Neoclassical paintings are rewarded with points and bans. It's a post apocalyptic fascist state. A good trainer for the coming World. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was making a point... My posts merely reflected what I've seen day in, day out, since I came back. I wanted to show you all exactly how it looks and how droll it is. It's just pointless, miserable, moaning, whinging, negative, boring tatt. I started a thread tonight and instead of the people who were interested in the subject commenting, it was just spammed with pointless waste of internet space. Is that fun? If so, wow. I'm all for a piss take and some banter, in fact I live for it. But that's not what it is. It's not smart enough. And the classic retort is that I'm on my period? Quality banter guys... <Sarcasm> It's with no small amount of irony that I realise that this very thread was started by somebody who dropped off the site although in this case I don't think it's going to take a Sherlock/Poirot hybrid to work out why.

Because the Brit Awards are wank? Go to her profile and read her last few posts. Somewhat ironically, ninety percent of them are her moaning about something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't defending her, I meant (reference to my earlier post) that with a lot of posters there is no clue in their final posts that they are about to disappear. . Her final post is the kind of rant you might expect to see as a final post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 (edited) Oh I wasn't aiming that directly at you @sidcow, more to everyone to show how hypocritical her post was. Edited February 11, 2017 by Ginko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted February 11, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted February 11, 2017 Just went back to that page and had a quick read of the subsequent pages. Now I'm not sure whether to say "you've got another thing coming" or "you've got another think coming". Although on the plus side, I already knew what "droll" meant.

I still feel very attached to the forum and read it multiple times a day. It was too easy to fall into a crap conversation ending up in a semi argument and folks getting upset or obsessing about their point. One too many of those and it just put me off posting. I still love it here though and do chime in occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
