Funeral etiquette

Ya we’d still dig graves but there’s a couple of graveyards where the council boys would be put out over it.
There’s a great auld fella who’s over the graveyard where most of my family would be buried. He has brilliant stories and the mornings digging would fly listening to him.

Would ye ever use a template when digging a grave? It saves some amount of work.

Fucking Council lads take a week to dig graves I have herd bad stories about drumcliff in Ennis and short graves ???

What do you mean by a templated we just usually dig away unless it’s a new grave then we mark it out

It’s a fold away timber frame the same dimension as the coffin.You use it as your digging so you don’t end up digging a load more space than you need :lol:

Only ever saw it used once

It’s more of a device for lazy fuckers.
Myself and Julio were very impressed it as we supped our hot whiskey and took care not get our brogues dirty.

Nothing better than watching a lad well versed in the use of a shovel do his thing.

Actually, the opening chapter of my novel takes place at a funeral and I don’t go to an awful lot of them so I had a few questions:

1. At what stage does the eulogy typically take place?
2. At what point does that rotten smelling incense get released into the air (before or after eulogy)?
3. What is the name of the rotten smelling incense?
4. Are the terms funeral mass and requiem mass synonymous?
5. Is that how you spell synonymous?

One of the altar boys will deal with these queries Clarkey. All good questions

That incense is great stuff Clarkey, i used the find the fumes off it intoxicating during my own alter serving career. I’d be walking behind the priest waving it (the incense and not his cock) about the place and you could fall asleep with it…

Course I don’t I went to college so people like u could do the hard work for me. The most physical labour I engage in is occasionally moving a heavy file from one side of my desk to the other

I don’t mind the smell of it but when you used to be the one holding it you’d nearly get high off it

I used to go in the back while no-one was looking and sniff the shit out of it…

If the priest caught you he would have been incensed
