Strange questions that sometimes need answering (or not asking in the first place really).

Happy new year mate. Just having a quiet one and watching a bit of telly ('Early Doors' on BBC iPlayer - I think someone tipped it on here a while back). Will probably be in bed not long after midnight. Season's greetings to all :)

A sound choice of TV. Early doors is the greatest 12 episodes of TV ever made. Watch out for the joke aimed at James McAvoy in the second series.
 
She'll be up there partying with 2pac, Kurt Cobain and Prince in heaven now anyway. Whilst us plebs are working our arses off down here.
 
Depends on the tickets.

Shakespeare plays are usually more expensive on a saturday, but you would expect better performances.

My opinion. Take the Friday. You may get an understudy but at least the quality will be decent. And usually decent pubs in and around posh theatres.
 
Had to read the ******* thing for my O level literature.
Put me off the guy for life.

The guy that got his laptop out during Macbeth deserves a medal.
 
We did it at primary school. Had the torture that is Macbeth for GCSE's. Last English lesson, our English teacher turned round to us and said. "You lot are lucky, you only have to study one of his plays once, maybe twice if you are doing A-levels. I on the other hand, have to do this till I retire."

shakespeare exists for two reasons.

1, it gives actors, even more smug satisfaction when In a play.

2, gives posh and, folk who think they are safiscated, something to do on an evening.
 
On the London Underground, why do all of the doors open when just one of them gets jammed? In what way is that useful?
 
OK, here's a good one, genuinely asking for a (special) friend.
Are there actually any rules about scattering ashes in the countryside?
Just wondering if I have found a new way of strange rule breaking.
Didn't want to give it a google when there is such a combined fountain of knowledge on here.

In general you just need permission from the land owner. https://www.coop.co.uk/funeralcare/advice/scattering-ashes
 
Should be safe up on the local moors then, it is open land, not farmed.
He wants a few of mums ashes turned into a little jewel, which I thought was a little strange, but aren't we all.
Become quite a thing apparently, but the above website does describe it as a "marmite" issue.
 
My mom wants our dogs ashes turned into a little piece of jewellery or something (he's still alive at the moment). The alternative is ashes kept in an urn in the house, I think.
