Essex Council Bans Ornaments From Cemeteries

THE council cemetery in Colchester, Essex, will no longer look so colourful  should the council get their way and the “ornaments” are removed.

Says councillor Martin Hunt:

“…the removal of ornaments from open spaces, in particular trees, is necessary to allow funeral services to be conducted with the dignity they deserve and allow all mourners to grieve in peace.”

To recap: No bagpipes
