There was a craze in the 60s for competitive burial. The world record was once set in Kilburn.

Michael Meaney was my Dad’s cousin and I remember being taken there as a little kid and shouting down a pipe to him. My uncle told me years later it was all bollocks and he came up every night - hence the lack of scrutineers.
Michael’s greatest act lay ahead of him. You’ve probably heard of the Magdalene nurseries, where teenage Irish mothers were detained after being separated from their babies until their children reached 16. By then they were so institutionalised and rejected by society that many stayed on for life. This had happened to a cousin of Michael’s. When he returned home to Ireland, he insisted on taking this girl in on her release, to the horror of members of his family, including my grandmother, who was aunt to Michael and the girl, who preferred to keep her out of sight. After a few years she ended up married with a family life of her own. |  | | |

Forwarded this to my colleague who’s having back surgery next week and has to spend 10 days in bed afterwards. She reckons she can beat this guy’s record standing on her head. |  | | |

My Dad in 2017 had a spinal infection and was admitted to the spinal injury unit at Stanmore. Because he had an ICD fitted they would not operate. He was on his back in bed for 7 weeks fighting the infection and recovering.

Standing on your head will probably get you disqualified.
Good luck to her. |  | | |

Funnily enough I was just reading about that In Robert Elms' London book (which is really good). |  |
