Here sometimes you can see these kind of screens with titles like Funeral Directors, Funeral Services etc these people arrange all ceremonies necessary. I heard their bills can be up to 15000 pounds but most of people insure themselves against these cost before they die and become a burden for their families.

Here is the entrance of a very complicated and dreadful(well, it used to be dreadful, not anymore) underground that Churchil used to live and conduct his war cabinet and make his most important decisions during the World War 2. That little door on right opens up to a underground very safe maze that apart from offices, meeting rooms, telecommunication facilities etc, includes private kitchen, bedroom and other personal belongings of the prime minister Churchil in war time. He used to live and work here to stay safe from Germans air strikes. Now here is museum called Churchil Museum and Cabinet War Rooms. Located in Westminister, at the end of King Charles st, SW1

Here again is Seer Green & Jordans train Station, but its car park and its big sign of tariffs and its terms and Conditions. These was two interesting things in there: first, it says if you are three passengers traveling with only one car, your parking fee is Free, which is really good and an enviromental friendly law, but i don't think is that much practical because how often you can find three people traveling and coming back from and to the same place, specially in such small village? But its a good gesture! second thing is the size of the space the terms and condition occupied of the sign! Its almost the half of the size of the sign with a very small font! I'm wondering who really can be bother to read all that or even have a look at it! You think has anyone ever read that? That person must be very interesting person:) its what it called compelet wast of time:)
