We were up at Linn Cemetery today to put flowers down for our wee stillborn daughter we lost 5 years ago tomorrow-just a small communal plot with a small marker.
What struck me was the number of individual plots that,imo,were somewhat gaudy or even somewhat tasteless and over the top.
It,for me anyway,took away the serenity and peacefulness of the place.
I and my missus,of all people,know the need to be able to deal with the loss of a child but to me seemed just completely out of place.
Just wanted to see if folk had any opinions or am I just over-reacting?
