We did it! We have visited all of the Magnificent Seven London Victorian cemeteries this year. Yesterday Laura D and I paid a visit to the final, closest to my home and last to be established of them, Tower Hamlets. This cemetery is also known as Bow Cemetery and is now closed to burials but... Continue Reading →
I think this is the longest I’ve gone in a while without writing a blog post! There’s no specific reason other than I’ve been working on a post I wanted to get out but I’ve not been able to get the photos I wanted yet, so hopefully soon that will be with you. Instead, I... Continue Reading →
What a fabulous start to the week I have had! Between being filmed for a documentary and Death Cafe, I can honestly say I had the best Tuesday for a long time. Those that know me well will know my hatred of that day of the week. Today was calmer but that was some relief,... Continue Reading →
One of the main purposes of this blog is to share my learning experience and I get stupidly excited about the things I can write about. My manager now says to me 'Something to blog about!' when pretty much anything of interest happens. Which is often. A few things from this week I think are... Continue Reading →

As you might have seen, what happens to the dead has been quite a hot topic in the news this week. I want to start by saying I am nowhere near an authority on what is being reported or what is being said in return. I’ve seen or read what I have access to, and... Continue Reading →
I woke up early again this Sunday! I had my breakfast, said goodbye to my other half and off I headed out in the rain. For the day was made for cemetery wandering and cemetery wandering I was about to do! The gates from within the cemetery Nunhead cemetery is one of the least known... Continue Reading →
My week in summary! Fairly long post I'm afraid but thought I would update you all on what's been happening. Sunday Sunday morning I got up nice and early and headed to the Gardens of Peace Muslim cemetery. I was very kindly granted a complimentary place on a Funeral Awareness Course for Women by the...

After the best Death Cafe so far, I had a day off work with big plans. Laura T had bought us tickets to go to Cadbury World for my birthday, and while we were in that part of the country I was eager to visit another place I’d had my eye on for a while.... Continue Reading →
