Nah – Wodger is doing them now, by the dozen as a side line. It has bee revealed by Willyleaks that the 'golden pen' is really a magic wand, in disguise (the wand chooses the wizard), so knocking off a few tombstones is no problemo, pick your words, quick twirl and the jobs done. The really great part is epitaphs don't have to get past all that tricky legal stuff. Wodger can happily scribe away without the remotest chance of getting his arse sued off.
The house boat crew agreed that there wouldn't need to be (or not) many words on the headstone as the plot can be pretty easily identified, being artistically formed in a horse shoe shape (there were some problems at the morgue with the proposed pretzel design) and the white marble, imitation urinal headstone was a sensitive, design addition, thoughtfully provided to accommodate the needs of the many visitors expected at the site. The plan is roundly applauded in a sensitive article this month in the "Strange Passings" magazine.

Aimed at the pot, and only just missed it;
Though standing is butch and he'd missed by not much.

Well it is early.... ..
