Doomsday Again!

The end of the world is happening again this Friday. The New Rapture is nearly upon us. 


Remember almost 5 months ago? The end of the world was the 21st May according to Harold Camping. Unfortunately the old chap didn't quite get his sums right - he wasn't exactly wrong of course because the 21st of May was just the beginning. It was the date that applications for salvation closed and the offices of God apparently shut. I presume to give him plenty of time to complete all the paper work that the end of time and space must involve. So if you have been a goodie two shoes in the last 5 months  - its too late! If you were born in the last 5 months then blame your parents, they were told.

Of course there is a very serious side to all this.
I had forgotten all about this and I invited some friends round on Saturday and now it appears that I have spent good money on alcohol that will never get drunk. If that isn't a serious issue - well I can't think of a better one.

If by a slim chance nothing actually happens on Friday, well we always have the one in 2012 to look forward to.

  1. Since weve only got a few days left you'll forgive me if I take the subject onto Roger Helmer again. Its just that it seems he's on the verge of this Atlantic Bridge/Werrity/Foxgate thing. His former advisor Catherine Bray being the link. But I suppose we will never find out more. Goodbye.
