The UK postcode system has little or nothing to with other geographical designations, such as historical or contemporary administrative or ceremonal boundaries ā itās about routing post (as, indeed, you might expect from the name).
Take the following postcode for example - NG2 5FJ
The first half (known as the Outcode) routes the mail out of where itās sent from, and the second half (the Incode) routes it into where itās going to be delivered.
I told them at home that Iāll be buried in Cork. Have spent the majority of my life down here and want to be with my own family.
None of Christopher Columbus voyages ever landed in North America. He sailed south west hence Central and South America speak Spanish.

Iāve told herself to cremate me if I go early. Said thereās no point in her being tied to some place that theyād feel the need to be near or visit.

@Kyle brings it over on the boat and goes into a liverpool game 4 hours early to throw it on the pitch but it blows back on him like the lads in the Big Lebowski. @caulifloweredneanderthal is mostly stood on then by the MGFs, a true reflection of irish footix status in liverpool.
Doubles and trebles on dartboards are bigger than they used to be.

I couldnāt give a hoot. Once Iām gone, Iām gone.
Half of @Atticus_Finch ashes were dumped on the pitch in the Gaelic Groundās and the other half fired off the cliffs in Ballybunnion as he was fond of the Monday club down there back in the day
I got my fatherās home from Spain Christmas weekā¦ Unsure what to do with it. As a lifelong Utd supporter i might scatter him at Anfield like youāve suggested.
Im doing similar but herself is getting my ashes in a locket that she will wear around her neck/between her diddys.
@Cheasty was on to that years ago. Knew that the doubles and trebles on the BDO were tighter.
All to do with the width of the wires on the board.
Would that mean youād have no āgraveā then for your family to visit? What would replace that ritual for people?
He wasnāt religious and didnāt want anyone visiting his grave.His brother asked a couple of us where he thought he should scatter him and as he was a massive Limerick Gael the GG was an obvious place.
No I just mean in general when someone is cremated and scattered. Is there just no grave visiting ritual then or what?
Iām that that big up on theses things lad
People would scatter them or bury them in a public place they can return to (like an existing grave) or possibly on their own property.
An acquaintance had a spouse die a few years back, had the cremation, but not yet collected the urn as funeral bill not paid for.
One way of doing it.
