your last words

[dellzeqq]

these can so easily go wrong. Take 'am I still alive?' by Jeanne Julie Eleonore de Lespinasse. Having asked, she died.

I'm just hoping that I don't pop my clogs having uttered some hostage to fortune along the lines of along the lines of 'triples - who needs 'em?' Or, worse still, 'stopping........'

My plan is to tell my nearest and dearest how much I've loved them and then slip beneath the waves with a contented smile on my face, but that takes a bit of arranging. In the absence of the required familial tableau not-so-vivant I reckon I'll settle for 'drink'

any deathless prose plans?

"Well, why didn't you bloody look then?"
(In reply to SMIDSY as I lie expiring on the tarmac.)

 

[NormanD]

I've sold my half of the house to my mate you hate so much!! ...gasp!!

 

[Fnaar]

I'd like my last words to be "Thanks Davina and Martine*, that was awesome"

*McCall and McCutcheon

"There's something really important I need to tell you..."

 

[Ian H]

One way round it is to write your own epitaph. If it's witty or poignant enough, people will remember that instead. Or say something very profound, ensure it's recorded, then take a final vow of silence.

 

[Silver Fox]

Oh no, I've drank the Tippex instead of the liquid viagra, now I've got a huge correction.

 

[Dayvo]

My sister told me of something she heard or read somewhere.

A man had suffered a heart attack and was being taken by ambulance to the hospital. He muttered 'Oh no, I haven't had my pudding...!' and then promptly died.

 

[Night Train]

To no one in particular..."I told you I was immortal!"

 

[Archie_tect]

Listen, the money's in the.....

 

[Gareth]

I am unsure what final words I would like to say .... but I do know the last words that I would like to hear as I leave this life.


They are:


"He's done f***ing what!"

 

[Cheddar George]

"Avenge me my son ........... Avenge me !!"

I'll probably be 86 years old and wearing tartan slippers but i still like the sentiment.

 

[Archie_tect]

"Does this tea taste funny to you?"

"No, it is a piano..."

 

[NormanD]

"What Bus?"

 

[ColinJ]

I'm hoping that I die alone in which case it won't really matter what I say, but I hope I feel like saying (to myself): "Well, Col, somehow it all worked out okay in the end!"

I dread the thought of getting to that last moment and saying (to myself): "Oh, so that's all there was to my life!"
