I dunno what people are moaning about here…
Lake Zurich’s lovely – what better final resting place?
Although it’s not lost on me that this is being treated as an environmental crime.
It is against the law to dispose of a large number of urns without a commercial licence.
What – they have a specific provision in Swiss laws regarding urns? It must be an endemic problem.

The Grecian laws regarding urns are even more strict..!

Bout five bob a week!! Boom boom!
Last time I heard that was in the film ‘The Colditz Story’ 1955 Lionel Jeffries, Richard Wattis, Ian Carmichael and John Mills.

‘ I belong to Colditz, dear old Colditz schloss…there’s nothing the matter with Colditz….etc

Well they have a specific law in Switzerland about having a pee while standing up (specifically – it’s not allowed after 10pm), so nothing would surprise me, frankly. The place is practically a police state.
I’d heard that, but was never sure it was anything more than urban myth.
Is it nationwide or just in particular Cantons?
