Remembering days gone by, I recommend one of those freestanding airmans/airwomans lockers.

I seem to recall that when required they could be suitably 'ballasted' for practice and more than one SWO bought a set of handles using PSI funds to screw into the sides.

Recently, I came across some photos in which the SWOs 'Bantam' small lorry was used to convey the deceased (in a proper coffin) to the nearby cemetery and with the requisite number of officers and men marching behind.

QRs stipulated how many made up the funeral party (depending on rank).

When my time comes, I have stipulated cremation with a return of the ashes, which are then to be thrown all over the lounge carpet in a final act of defiance. The Distaff has stated that she will then hoover them up and throw them in the dustbin!
