Talking about Corner Shops - remember the Two Ronnies
sketch with Ronnie Barker as the customer and Ronnie Corbett
as the proprietor of an ironmongers shop? Four Candles

At Ronnie Barker's funeral the coffin as it processed up the aisle had just
three candles on it at the corners. Took a moment for the congregation,
many of whom were from show business, to twig the joke - then roars of
laughter, which might not normally be appropriate for a funeral but I am
sure Mr Barker would have appreciated it. Shades of the old RAF "lost
pilot" formation.
