Man buried in grave on the third attempt in Glasgow

A man had to be buried in front of mourners at the third attempt, because his grave was too small.

During the service, a JCB digger had to create a new burial plot for Alex Dickson, at Lambhill Cemetery in Glasgow, in October.

The 65-year-old’s sister, Phyllis Forbes, told the Scottish Sun that the coffin could only be partially lowered into the ground.
