How awful- that's even worse than dying by yourself and being half eaten by the cat before someone thinks to look for you!

Oh gross!

Many years ago a friend of mine was a student at Oxford and he came home one holiday with the news that a chap on the same corridor had died.

Folks had smelt something odd but just thought it was BO as the dead guy wasn't renowned for attendance at lecturs or cleanliness....

I heard one about a woman who had died while putting something in the oven. When she was found, the front half of her was cooked. I know a really gruesome one about how someone died. It has haunted me for years. Want me to tell?

A woman I knew who worked at the Total petrol station on Wordsworth used to work at a hairdressers in Sheffield and there was a young man who rented the couple of rooms above the place, he was quiet, well behaved and never missed the rent.

Until the summer of that year.. He wasnt seen for weeks and he used to walk through the hairdressers to get to and from his little flat.

A strange smell started to flood the shop and the lady I knew drew the short straw to go to the flat to check on him and to ask why he hadnt paid the rent. They used to just walk into the flat after knocking because they were on good terms with him so she knocked , opened the door and went in-- and walked straight into his partially decomposing, fly blown corpse that was hanging in the hallway just behind the door.

As she walked into it, the neck gave way and the corpse fell in a heap at her feet- and thousands of big fat bluebottles all took off at the same time.

No names or pack drill for obvious reasons, but she spent time in Middlewood hospital because of that.

It's all the same guy Max.

Still a bit freaking though. You think they'd say hello every now and again.

You're joking! There's me thinking George Turklebaum must be a really popular American name. ;)
