what a fantastic read, really cheered me up (does that make me rather odd)

I've just read the whole thing and hubby thinks I've gone crazy, sitting here larffing to myself!! My best one - A friend's ancestor died from being decapitated by a train after following the track home from the pub...... I told my father-in-law about it and he said,........''Oh, that's terrible. Did he die??'' LOL Merry

Just adding my name as I don't want to loose it before I've finished it all.

Is this what everyone's looking for??!! Merry

My mum’s friend has a death cert that says “eaten by a tiger”. Apparently he was part of a circus. LOL -I just read through this thread again and some people have deleted their contributions so now it appears as if a few of us were talking to ourselves.

Thiis has to be the best 'Ever' that I have read on any of these boards, I have 'the Grippes' from laughing so much, thank you all who posted replies. It has made a dull night at work really funny. EL

One of my rellies died aged 93.Cause of death decay of nature.Wonder what she looked like before she breathed her last!Lindy

Bumping this cause it makes us laff! Kim

Pat Type in 'most amusing' in the search bar. It was the one with 2 replies (one of which was mine). That's when I decided it was someone else's turn. Lyla

I remember reading a 100 year old extract from a local paper about someone dying after losing ' two bucketfuls of blood'...how on earth did they know that? Aileen

Lyla, Just read back and it was Peter! he's cheeky. I didn't want to start something that someone else had thought of that's why I said that. What thread did you only get one reply? must have missed that one, was that just after this or more recent? Pat x

Marion, I have griping and stopping too...they are hurting big time! Aileenx

Pat, Last time I tried to add a new thread to the most amusing series i only got one reply. I think it's your turn to start one! Lyla

One from a little book called..... 'A small book of grave humour' Here lies John Higley Whose Mother and Father were drowned in the passage from America..........had they both lived, they would have been buried here. oops! lol

Marion the lettuce LOL. brings back great memories this thread, hey? Wasn't Lyla going to do that one? must ask her incase she doesn't see this, Peter. Best thread on Genes this is. Pat x

Gerri - what a brill idea! I've been to a couple of 'oldies' brithday parties where they've laminated old photos as coasters, but the cerificates would be great as placemats!!
