4 FLOAT OUT IN A VIKING BOAT:

Add your ashes to the miniature replica of a wooden longboat, set it on fire and then send it out on water just as depicted in Viking legend. "There's something about fire and water that's very healing," says Richard Martin. "Our Viking boat urns have particularly helped some very hurt families cope with their loss of their children." The boats start from £350 at scattering-ashes.co.uk
