Our village churchyard is very small, and only contains (at most) 50 graves. Near to the road is the only 2nd World War Military grave,still pure white and pristine. It is the burial place of a 22year old airman,killed in 1944(no reason given). I felt so sad for him that I have taken to waving at the grave (from the car) as we pass on our way our (or back). Is this weird? A friend made me laugh,she siad "one day a hand will appear and wave back;like "thing" from the Addams family" Would anyone else do this?
When I tend my Nan & Grandad's grave - I always talk to them and their 'neighbours' on either side - nobody tends the graves on either side, so I always put a few flowers on them.
