If only I'd remembered I wouldn't have bothered doing my shopping this morning! The end of the world put me in mind of a song I was brought up with "We will All Go Together When We Go" by Tom Lehrer. A cheerful little ditty! :D

Shuffling footsteps in the hallway, a peculiarly rank smell, vacant stares and drooling mouths came at me muttering 'fooooooood'.

It's okay though, it was only my three teenage/twentage children, scarily downstairs before midday.

It's the end of the world as we know it (and I feel fine)

A friend did have this posted on FB earlier...

No one said that the end of the world would be quick did they?

I predict a new deadly virus that will spread across the entire globe wiping out everyone... First case is being diagnosed as we speak.... Other, as yet undiagnosed cases, have already boarded planes and are traveling to every continent .....

So yes, today IS the end of the world.... It's just going to take a few weeks to be finalized that's all....

You are ahead of us, so you need to inform us when it happens (a quick post while you scream in agony should do it, something simple, like "NOW").

That will give us a bit of time to prepare ourselves.

Thanks.

T-1 hour and all is calm ... ;)

Tom Lehrer :thumbup: <surfs off for more pronto ...>

As we entered Central Station this morning the driver said "I hope you all have a Happy Apocalypse", raised a laugh amongst the commuters anyway ...

Still here....................maybe it is a plague of rabbits that will eat all the food- just like they are doing to my garden- and dig holes that unwary people will fall into.

At least there are 3 less of them this morning, counting the roadkills I saw on the way to swimming.
