We are losing money came the cry!
We do our best to bury the dead,
With respect and honour,
At a price!
And what do they do,
They stop dying,
Leaving us with no money.
Why are they not dying?
We will have to do something,
Do something about that…..

Yes, it's not good enough - people living too long. They can't get enough trade! Ooohhh (heehee). Well, we've both been around since before 1066.
It certainly seemed that way from the report in the paper.
It reminds me of an Emo Phillips joke.
I told my Mum I needed a tuxedo for an event I was invited to. She said I could borrow my Grandfathers. So I went to look for the shovel.
Did you find it?
GOOD MORNING UNCLE ANDY - ANGELA HERE ! Thanks for the VIDEO (I could play along with that - Love CHOPIN) and your DROLL Poem on a SOMBRE subject ! We had heard that the FD's were crying into their coffins because of LONGEVITY - Blame the PHYSIOS for that ! Another reason is that all the 75+ are hanging in until they know the OUTCOME of BREXIT ! However you can delay DEATH ! Thomas Jefferson did - so he could die on the 50th Anniversary of the Signing of the Declaration of Independence aged 83 on the FOURTH of JULY 1826 !
Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOUR LOVELY JOYCE
Love ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡💙🧡💙🧡
It’s quite sad really as the report seemed to say they wanted more peopl to die.
