Would be great, but like you say, you have to think of future tenants ;) @Neil: Hi Neil, sounds like the idea I have in mind too - being buried in the family garden with a tree on top.

So we would love to be buried in it some time long into the future :-) Planting a tree on top will help ensure we soon become part of the surrounding environment. Our only concern is thinking of a way to stop future inhabitants who think they are not worried about someone buried in the garden becoming squeemish later on. It has been known to happen then they get permission to exhume and rebury the body, which defeats the whole object of the exercise.
