Bit careless, did he put her down somewhere and she ran off?

Aye, being an orphan my Mum and Dad for two.

Naw, we all gotta go, it's one of the very few certainties of life
FFS. Circumstances of one inevitable departure might not be what one
wishes but the is SFA you can do about it. Those left behind should
celebrate the life that has been. I'm leaving a few hundred quid to
each close family member so they have no (financial) reason not to
come to my funeral party and raise a glass.

And I doubt you'll boast about how wonderful you are to do it. To be
frank, Crowe's post appalled me, it's just dreadful in its vulgarity.
Yet again his ego takes precedence.

Never mind, you carry on taking swipes at me if it makes you happy. It's
good for a laugh amongst my friends. I will wish you and your family a vey
Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year.
