Cheap life insurance that's all we need he said cheap life insurance. He said we cant afford to pay the earth. As long as there is enough to bury us that's all that matters he said.

Well I dont agree with him its ok getting cheap life insurance but what if it doesn't cover what needs to be covered. Men have no idea at least my Bill hasn't. He hasn't a flipping clue.He would rather spend his money down at the betting shop or buying booze. He's a liability he is, one of these days he will stumble through that glass door, and that will be the end of him, ha. Then I'll have to pick up the pieces not the glass...........the flipping financial mess his cheap life insurance will leave me.

If he thinks he'll get a burial without paying more hes got another thing coming. It will all have to be done on the cheap if he has his way. I can see it now . A cremation done by the council. his ashes scattered on the lawn and a drink at the general Talon.

Cor blimey he leads me a merry dance. I'm not having it. I might have lived in poverty but I entered this world in style and I'll leave in style.

When I was born my Mother was in service in a big Mansion in London. Because she had served for many years the Mistress had bonded with her and allowed her to work below stairs for as long as her pregnancy would let her. Glory be, I came when the Duke and Duchess of somewhere or other had arrived. They heard my mother screaming and the mistress and Duchess dashed downstairs to see what was going on.

Apparently, the Duchess delivered me . Unheard of, and it was kept quite. So when I die , I'm going out in style as well. I want the horses to pull the hearse, led by a man with his hat to his chest I want a beautiful gravestone, a white carved angel looking down at my grave . I want her holding a book with an inscription.I want a nice reception for all my friends and family at the Gresham hotel. Oh yes ,I am going in style my lad, no cheap way out. Thank goodness I have been taking care of my own insurance all these years.
