I'll look.The mums net contributor. It was at the top of the quote I posted.
I worked it a cemetery office some decades ago. I heard the clip clop of hooves. It had me going until I’d remembered the manager had said there was a horse drawn funeral coming.I'll look.
Edit - ah right, got it now.
We live near the local cemetery and several undertakers' premises.
Every time we go out there's a funeral going by.
There could be a hundred phantom funerals a week and we wouldn't notice.
We often see the carriage-hearse and the horses being unloaded at the cemetery, and then later in their clip-clopping glory. Very dignified indeed.I worked it a cemetery office some decades ago.

We had a horse-drawn funeral like that around here recently. You really have to draw the lines somewhere in life and Corpse Funeral Horsemuck surely has to be near the top of the list.We often see the carriage-hearse and the horses being unloaded at the cemetery, and then later in their clip-clopping glory.

Crosses my mind to pop out with the shovel after they've gone by. Rhubarb season's a-coming.
One likes to think of the recently deceased as a keen gardener who'd appreciate this act of organic recirculation.We had a horse-drawn funeral like that around here recently. You really have to draw the lines somewhere in life and Corpse Funeral Horsemuck surely has to be near the top of the list.
I just want to know one thing - Who is 'Marduk'??
A Mesopotamian god; Babylon's patron deity.
"Disciple of Marduk" is the default user title for a member with at least 25,000 posts, just as your "Abominable Snowman" default title is attributed to someone who has at least 500 posts.
I keep misreading my new(ish) title as "Abominable Showman"
If you're fond of that variant you can install it by inserting it as a Custom Title in your account preferences.
Well shouldn't I be an "Abominable SnowWOMAN"?
Still trying to read the Mumsnet stories but it would be really great if you could see them around the adverts View attachment 53991
Mumsnet have a Premier version for people who pay and thus avoid the ads. I think their forum got mega successful but - and we should speak warily here - the need to pay people to moderate and oversee the general posts (people were using the forum to beg for items and money or to post adverts for their products) meant that they had to start getting revenue in.Get an adblocker extension for your browser.

Definitely worth a read:Forgive me if this has been posted, and speaking of Mumsnet....Creepiest thing that has happened to you that you can not explain?
Apparently the location was Savernake Forest. This to home to a population of wild boar, which might explain some aspects of the story but by no means all of it:More like this, please!
