“But Dave really did work in a cemetery — by choice too. “I had to have five goes before they’d take me on. They kept saying ‘Who’s this little puny geezer, he’s not gonna be able to do it.’ And I kept saying ‘I’m alright, I’ll do it’ until I got the job. But I used to annoy people ‘cause I’d be digging a grave and singing at the top of me voice — Alice Cooper songs like ‘I Love The Dead’ and ‘Dead Babies’.”
Dave finally hung up his shovel for the last time a few weeks ago. “He was the best gravedigger they ever had,” says Rat. “They kept asking him back to do other jobs.”

Good Idea: Whistling while you work :D
Bad Idea: Singing dead babies whilst you dig graves. :(

“Never stop. Never stop fighting. Never stop dreaming. And don’t be afraid of wearing your heart on your sleeve ; in declaring the films that you love, the films that you want to make, the life that you’ve had, and the lives you can help reflect in cinema. For myself, for a long time … Maybe I felt inauthentic or something, I felt like my voice wasn’t worth hearing, and I think everyone’s voice is worth hearing. So if you’ve got something to say, say it from the rooftops.”
