Adopt a Grave.

I have put a thread on this board regarding how many graves are not looked after-for many a reason-and I offered if anybody wanted me to check a grave in my local cemetary whilst I am there I would willingly do it, and then we thought we could swap a grave, if anybody would care to offer their services to look after somebody's grave when the family has moved away in a cemetary near you. I have adopted one, and I was hoping a lot more would be able to, but the replies were low. Why miss such a good opportunity to have your loved one's grave looked after in your absence. Just add the cemetary near you and see what happens.

I should change the thread title of your other thread, as at the moment it doesn't give any indication of what it's about!! ''Adopt a grave'' would be good. Merry
