Re: The Wrong Funeral

My wife had a letter from N Power electricity saying I had died and although they expressed regret they wanted my estate to pay what was owed. They had a bit of a shock when I wrote back saying i was not dead and saying how much distress they had caused my family and I demanded an apology and compensation of several thousands of pounds for their error.

I did get the apology and a substancial financial compensation cheque from them

Well done! Considering what they charge you would think they could get efficient systems with accurate info, wouldn't you?

Re: The Wrong Funeral

Azure, that was funny in a macabre way!

I went to a funeral last week at the crematorium but l didn't know which chapel it was in. I looked at the list of names on the door of one chapel and one of the names was my surname! I must admit, l felt a bit funny seeing my surname! It made me realise that one day, it really would be on a list there!

Yes Artangel, that would make you think life is not eternal.

I know some peoeple have gone to the wrong Wedding as they got lost in a strange Town and could not find the right Church. They did make it to the right reception in the end
