They'll work around it, my granny died on the 20th of December last year and her funeral mass and burial occured on xmas eve.

Xmas Day, Easter Sunday and Good Friday are the only days which a Funeral Mass cannot occur.

You can have a funeral any day, and a Funeral Mass on Christmas Day. It's Lent where it gets tricky, you still have the funeral but not the Mass.

Do they not reach ye anything in them RE classes they make ye go to?

Never a nice time to bury someone you love but Christmas eve must be spectacularly sh*t

You can't be sending round a collection plate at a funeral, it's bad-looking.

Oh no, - not saying that was me the other day but thats exactly a kind of thing I could see myself doing , especially at the quiet moments when you dont know what to say and just come out with crap! ... then worry about it later.

I think i did say to his fiancé "how are you.... that's a silly thing to say" ... and then I keep thinking yep that was a silly thing to say
