I have been let down on the tanker!

They promised but did not reply to me. The undertakers could not raise them at all and neither could they find anybody else.

They are going to try the council where he worked as a last ditch attempt.

Meanwhile I must buy a set of drain rods to take back later.

The council are sending a cesspit tanker at short notice because somebody who works there remembered him.

Fred used to empty cesspits for the council.

I want it to come lumbering in when everybody is expecting the hearse.

That is excellent news Sharron <3 and well done to your local council :-)

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

I bet Fred is laughing his socks off at all your efforts and arrangements Sharron.

Well done for overcoming the difficulty re the tanker.

Well done Sharron, it's good that the council is helping.

When I'm having my sausage sandwich on Monday I'll be listening for Fred laughing.
