WRING OUT YOUR DEAD ? These people are sick! ?

Would have been my OH's dad's 100th birthday today, so he wanted to go to the crematorium to lay some flowers, reminisce and pay respects.

As soon as we drive up to the end of the car park before the concourse into the crematorium - big sign - CORONAVIRUS - SOCIAL DISTANCING MEASURES ARE IN FORCE.

15 - FIFTEEN of these fucking things emblazoning SOCIAL DISTANCING, DO NOT GATHER BEYOND THIS POINT, STAY 6FT APART, FUNERAL CARS ALLOWED ONLY all festooned around the area where people coming to a cremation, or to pay respects to their loved ones, first park up.

Really? Are words like 'FORCE', 'DO NOT', 'STAY APART' the things that mourners want to be greeted with on the day they come to bid their departed loved one farewell, and or pay their respects to those on an anniversary?

And get this. 'CORONAVIRUS' features the spiky 'virus' animation for the first 'O'. Underneath is written, in much smaller letters, 'Covid 19', with the circle in the 9 filled in in bold. So which is it? Coronavirus or Covid 19? If I've got a common cold, which is a coronavirus, should I heed these signs?

A place of sanctity, a place of deity watching over our departed, defiled with this SATANIC FILTH of officialdom gone mad.

Fortunately, I swiftly deduced that the signs were driven into the ground in terracotta earthenware stumps. I uprooted the nearest one and shoved it under a nearby hedgerow, where it FUCKING belongs.

Tomorrow I am going to be lodging an official complaint with the Local Authority for this disgusting debasement of the dignity of death.
