Last week I spent a few days in my home town visiting relatives and friends. Whilst I was there I wished to place flowers on the grave of a friend who died recently. Another friend informed me that the cemetary had taken over part of the allotments to extend the burial site and that our friend was buried there. I used to have one of the allotments there and when I visited I found that my friend was buried exactly on the site of my old plot! I can't begin to describe my emotions as I looked down at my friend's grave which was placed exactly where my shed used to stand!   |

I think that is great Cowslip. How nice to leave your plot to your friend. |

That is strange Cowslip but also as Cherry says it seems quite nice that you have a connection to your friend even now & I bet they would be happy to be resting in somewhere you'd cared for & tended.

Very spooky cowslip but I tend to agree with what Sue and Cherry have said |

Thanks, Cherry, Esther and Sue, I hadn't thought of it like that. I feel much better now.
