Epitaphs - what would yours say?

[2017clearout]

I've really been enjoying the autobiography thread, and it set me wondering about something else: if it was up to you, what would you have inscribed on your tombstone?

I learned to read from gravestones in our local churchyard, and it was pretty much the highlight after Sunday School to wander round and scare ourselves silly with the Victorian inscriptions (I spent a while terrified by all the "Fell Asleep"s...), some of which were also either fantastic or humourous.  It left me fascinated with graveyards and inscriptions, and I always try to find churchyards or cemeteries, even on holiday, to wander round.

So - no morbidity, but: what would you have?

[captainbovine]

[saasher2012]

Dey am right nasty little boogers CB, cows & horses go mad if they hear the bot fly coming. They lay sticky little eggs on the host that irritates them , they lick the irritation & ingest the eggs which proceed the hatch in the stomach it causes bleeding & ulceration in the horse very often if left untreated can damage the gut to such an extent it causes colic or completely weakens the gut , in the cow it will travel through the body ending up just under the skin on the back & when it's mature will break out & continue it's life in the adult state.
They leave huge holes in the cows hide which devalues it .

Couldn't they use that bit as a buttonhole?   

[saasher2012]

They could but they're never in a straight line! That made me chuckle very good! lol.
