I couldn't care less what happens to me after I die, never mind what coffin I have. I've always maintained that I'd be happy to die on a Monday evening as the binmen come on Tuesday morning.

A pine box would do me just fine.

Technically a burial site, but whatever...

I like to think of myself as a modest person

As we will not see it , what does it matter?I just DO NOT believe that when some body is cremated,that they burn the coffin too.I honestly think , that if this is the case, then the Funeral Directors should be honest with people and ,tell them that the cask is not burnt,and give every body the OPTION of hiring the cask instead What brings me to the conclusion that the cask is NOT burnt too ?
Well I have been to numerous funerals at Crematoriums,and once the body has been brought inside the Crematorium,there is NO reason for the Hurst to stay there, that i can think of,but i believe that after the mourners have left.The body is removed from the box and that is then loaded into the area underneath the Display part,and this has a door to accomadate a coffin

The Hurst? I know at a cremation they think it's all over...
