what a weird and different world this is indeed.
Cremation very formal, as in organised, placed in an oven, not as dramatic as those in the East.
gosh what happens if you bury grandad but then decide to move house

Oh I see. I heard they burn the deceased together with the casket. Is that true?
😅😅😅 We rarely move houses. Like I said, the deceased is buried in their original home, where they're from. So most times, the land on which the house is built belongs to the family. It's not common for people to move away from their land.
I was fortunate to visit Varanasi a few years ago, the epicentre of Hindu cremations, what I saw was remarkable. They just carry the deceased through the streets wrapped in just a shroud, and they are burned in the open air on a pyre of wood right on the Ganges, an awesome thing to witness.
I see, our cultures are so very different in respect of house moves
Oh wow, that sounds horrifying. It reminds of that one scene in Game of thrones 😅.
Well, I have never seen GoT so I wouldn't know lol
