At least I'll get to enjoy my birthday celebrations but think of the money we've wasted on Christmas presents

Two weeks to go and I've not even started on my bunker. Ah well, c'est la vie. Or maybe c'est le mort ...

You're all just fooling yourself.

but we all know it is.

Re: The end of the world is....not happening...

Having posted all my foreign Christmas cards early at least my friends will know I love and miss them whilst they cope with the aftermath of the apocalypse, shame they probably won't get the presents though as the hats and scarves would have come in handy.

In fact I think I will post all my UK cards this weekend as it seems a shame to waste the money I have already shelled out in postage.

Well, you're likely to have a very warm and comfy Apocalypse then.

Re: The end of the world is....not happening...

It's a good thing I've been watching Doomsday Preppers on National Geographic!

http://natgeotv.com/uk/doomsday-preppers/about

I've been burying packets of emergency Monster Munch all over my town in recent weeks just in case things get a little scary.

Rule 1 of prepping: Don't keep your food supplies in one place!
