End of the world.

Looks like we're all still here, then!

Well that is how it works isn't it? When the world doesn't end the doomsdayers will say. "That is because we chanted / prayed / meditated / stood in a cardboard box and sang jingle bells etc"....

How long after 11.12 will it be until the next End of the World date is predicted?

I think we're ok, as someone on fb said 'it's already tomorrow in Australia!'

[phew]

They worked it out to 11.12am our time. Though I'm not sure how as the Mayans didn't say anything about hours and minutes.

Apparently, some Shamen (sp?) are chanting to prevent it happening. So, if we are still here tomorrow, should we all become shamen?

To be honest, I was satisfied with the end of The News of the World.

Plenty of time to get your hair done, eat the mince pies or whatever it must be Mayan 1111, not UK. I make that some time early tomorrow morning but geography is not my subject.

I'm off to collect DH's presecription and then the supermarket just in case........................

Or I might see you all at the gates, Are we wearing something to identify GNs?

vampirequeen I don't have to worry about talking my way in - my DH is going to get me in under the fence - we will be just round the back if you want to join us

If the world does end Peter will be very busy today.

Hi

It says in MSN if we are here now the world will not be ending.
I am pleased about this as I want to enjoy my pension for another 60 years and possibly become a great great grandad when I am alive.
Oddly enough when I was in a cafe yesterday a man said I have missed a lot of fun by having only granddaughters.
As long as they are in good health I do not care about this.
I have got 2 son's in law now but all my male blood relatives are 55+.

Just popped in to say Bye. It's been nice knowing you. If it doesn't end Happy Christmas to you all and see you next year.

Good luck then vampirequeen

I'm wearing my hospital knickers just in case I survive and go to some sort of a and e.

If I find myself at the pearly gates and Peter asks me if I was prepared I can say "Yes, I've got my proper knickers on."

If I arrive at the Pearly Gates at 11 minutes past 11, I hope the Devil doesn't know I'm gone until at least 11.30. I may need some time to talk my way in...

glass will we be allowed to bring our broomsticks?

What does one wear for the end of the world? I mean, do I get dressed up, full war paint, nails done, hair freshly washed, etc or do I dress for comfort?

Hmm, I think I will go downstairs and finish up the mince pies, it'll seem such a waste if there is no one around to eat them tomorrow.

anno we will have a GN party at the gates... but we had better wait until we are inside or we will never make it

brenda me too!

At 11.11am, I will be sitting at the back-wash having my hair shampooed. I will enter the pearly gates with wet - but clean - hair. See you there...

I'm with you there I have cleaned fridge, freezer and oven ready for visitors now they won't be coming if the world ended. I could have left the dirt where it is.

I wish I had remembered about the end of the world and would not have cleaned the fridge and freezer out tonight.

Well, here is my take on the end of the current Mayan Long count:
It's my birthday on 22nd. What an amazing day for a birthday! It's the first day of a brand new era
22nd December is always an amazing day for a birthday though. It's when the days start getting longer again.
You could say I'm a bit of an optimist

Wrong type of brackets suki you need the straight-edged ones [ ]

Barrow, you are right. In fact, it is said that when someone did turn up with gold bars and dripping with bling, St Peter asked why he had brought paving and gravel with him! {fgrin}
