Collected Nanny's ashes from the undertaker this afternoon. She's on the windowsill in my lounge now but I haven't actually looked in the jar yet (surprisingly squeamish all of a sudden). It's quite a big vessel, much heavier and bigger than I was expecting. There is a Certificate of Cremation No 149077 in the bag alongside the jar that notes the name, age and death date of the deceased and the date and venue of the cremation. On the back there are instructions about the disposal of cremated remains. It notifies that if the remains are buried they can't be disintered without Home Office licence (I couldn't find out how much that costs anywhere) and/or a Bishop's Faculty which costs ₤161.80.
