I told my girls I wanted 'Three Little Birds' by Bob Marley played at my funeral.

Then they asked if they could choose a song/tune to play at my funeral.
'Of course' I said.
They went away to discuss it. I waited to hear what song my sweet girls would choose to sum up their mummy. <3

They came back. 'We're both agreed' eldest said. 'Ding Dong the Witch is dead'! :-S

One of the songs I'd like for my funeral:

Mary Hopkins (Roy Budd) - For all my days.

Got as far as that after Dtr told us to write down what we wanted. OH hasn't given it a thought - he's far too superstitious. :-0
