'Little Urn' -Ashes are smallest UC passenger ever

[Nottingham Nick]

The Ashes are going for a tour of Australia.

According to this report, the 4 inch high urn will have its own UC suite for the trip. [8D];).

SRB isn't slow to milk the publicity (no surprises there. [8D];) )

The Daily Mail print edition today has a photo of the urn in its suite, but the online edition doesn't seem to have it.

Wonder if it will get its own 'snooze pack' [:w]

More importantly, Nick, will it get it's own red satin cushion? I understand our own V-flyer expert on the transportation of ashes, egg, never moves an urn without a Gucci and Mont Blanc stand cushion, and were it to be transported 'san support suitable' Prieffer would have a thing or two to say!

What a waste of money in my opinion[:0]

Never!!! You cannot beat a good Ashes test match.... I will be in Melbourne for the boxing day test if anyone else is downunder ovr Xmas and New year.

VS045 - No Offence meant, it would be a boring old world if we were all into the same stuff... I cannot personally wait for Freddie to send one off Warney into the stand for the England!!

I meant that it's a waste of money spending £3000 on a seat for an urn.

That little urn needs all the protection it can get - It has so many cracks in it that all the Ashes orginally sealed inside must have escaped by now.....[:w]

Wonder if the Urn was travelling on a D or a J and got itself a free limo transfer aswell as a flat bed for a few hours....[:p]

I would be surprised if MCC are paying for the seat. Just this about this from the other side.

What a good deal for SRB! Offering a £3,000 or rather an award seat which would be a non-revenue seat for all this free advertising for VS. That's a bargain
