charly1979 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Yay oh joy I made it but oh dear now I am really going to have to put off those jobs that needed doing and perhaps goto the gym after scoffing a bag of Thortons Alpini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I seem to be here, and scoffing a bag of Thornton's Vanilla Fudge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Yup, still here in rural Oxfordshire! Tearing my hair out dealing with two very excited and hyper boys ! Saw a very interesting prog on the tezviz (as YS calls it) last night about the Maya and whole 21/12/12 thing that said that its not the end of the world that was predicted but the end of an age which could be good, bad or indifferent! All media hype then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckmum6 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Yes, and I put all my Christmas food shopping on credit card this morning, just in case I wasn't around after today, so I didn't have to pay it - oh well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I said bye to my hubby & said see him on the other side. I said I'd come back as a cat & he said he'd come back as a pig. I did warn him that he may end up at the butchers! We both said Boom & waited. At 12 minutes past 11, we both pinched ourselves...oh look we are still here!

ali-s Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I survived but a work colleague nearly didn't. A very lovely but nervy person who was convinced the world was going to end. Very close to tears all morning about the whole thing. She even got her 12 year old son worked up about it and she sent him to school in tears , and she said she had sent her children to school to die while she came to work. No amount of reasoning with her helped until after the end of world time had gone by. Was ready to throttle her by 11am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I had completely forgotten about it TBH. Bright blessings for the solstice though everyone. I have a bough of green over the door now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charly1979 Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 Just saw this on facebook thought it was quite amusing So the world is supposed to be ending today? That's sad. I never found out who let the dogs out, the way to get to Sesame Street, why Dora doesn't just use Google maps, why we don't ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery", why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed, why "abbreviated" is such a long word, why lemon juice is made with artificial flavour yet dish washing liquid is made with real lemons, why they sterilize the needle for lethal injections and why do you have to "put your two cents in" but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to? Why did Joanie love Chachi? If a deaf person has to go to court is it still called a hearing? Can a he"Ooops, word censored!" carrying a corpse drive in the +2 lane? Does the alphabet song and twinkle twinkle little star have the same tune? Why did you just try to sing those two previous songs? And just what is Victoria's secret? You see, the world just has to keep going. I have too many questions......and do you really think I am this witty ???? because I actually stole this from a friend, who stole from a friend, who stole from a friend, who stole from a friend , who stole from a friend ....pass it on my cupcake i freaking luv ya ;op xxx And yes I did sing both mentioned tunes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Lovely to think that the days will be getting longer now. Yes, and we had a lovely day here too, nice to see daylight for a change. Rosie had non-uniform day at school today... a friend of hers wore a horse mask and a t shirt saying 'the end of the world is neigh'. I think that's brilliant.

Valkyrie Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Oh I love that!!! No I don't because I'm not here. There was a big fireball and then the clouds made it go paler and then it came back again and - oh yes, that was the sun. Silly me, forgot what it looked like. Well it seems to have pootled off again as we are swimming here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angie Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I'm still here. But i think the rain is trying to wash us all away, it has been so dark today , not a break in the skies for days, starting to get me down, have to put the sad lamp on i think.
