Rapturous applause!!!Grin

madhattershouse · 21/05/2011 01:09

If it is the end then I wish I had shaved my pits...

DontCallMePenut · 21/05/2011 01:09

Happy end of the world!!! *note... It can't end yet... I have a holiday in 4 weeks time...

izzywhizzyletsgetbusy · 21/05/2011 01:13

For some reason I'm not feeling the rapture.

Could that be because I've only had a couple instead of my usual Friday night glugfest with Bacchus?

madhattershouse · 21/05/2011 01:15

Have a Wine izzy..it may help you " get with the vibe.."

theanonamouse · 21/05/2011 01:18

I am thinking i could use it as a reason to not do any housework tomorrow or for the next 5 months as nothing happens we enter the end of days or would that qualify me for a padded room lol

dont worry dontcallmepenut the rapture apparently goes on for 5 months so your holiday is safe and madhatter leaves you enough time to shave lol

Oh good! St Peter may be used to burning bushes but don't think he's ready for the full on upper arm mohican Grin

Rapture pet care, anyone?

izzywhizzyletsgetbusy · 21/05/2011 02:05

Cheers, madhattershouse, please have a few one yourself Wine and don't fret cos I'm reasonably certain that not paying due diligence to your pits is not enough, in itself, to consign you to a fiery one.

5 whole months of rapture?

izzywhizzyletsgetbusy · 21/05/2011 02:14

Anyone know when/where the 4 horseman are due to appear? Is it a ticket only event?

And will the Whore of Babylon be playing at the O2?

spiderslegs · 21/05/2011 02:22

Honestly, I keep thinking 'm about to be taken up but it's just Peter Cetera hitting a high note.....

izzywhizzyletsgetbusy · 21/05/2011 02:29

Let's all pray that we'll be taken tonight - that'll cheer us up.

izzywhizzyletsgetbusy · 21/05/2011 02:37

'St Peter may be used to burning bushes'??!!! Tthat sounds excrutiatingly painful.

Couldn't he have just melted down some tallow tapers when he was doing Brazilians madhattershouse?

spiderslegs · 21/05/2011 02:39

Eek Izzy, that's surely worse than any plague??

izzywhizzyletsgetbusy · 21/05/2011 02:53

It's all relative, spiderslegs, and we've all got to bid adieu to this world sometime.

Bubonic plague, burning bushes, pillars of salt, vats of boiling oil; when your number's up that's it - all we can do is grin and bare bear it.

RitaBix · 21/05/2011 08:55

I hope it is the end of the world. I have got £250 on it at good odds so if it is the end of the world I stand to make a lot of money

cannydoit · 21/05/2011 09:06

so the rapture is set for 2am tonight, so if you wake up and your dh is gone you just know you were naughty.

Tee2072 · 21/05/2011 09:09

No no no, it's for 6pm local time. It's a rolling rapture.

Apparently, though, nothing is going on where it is already 6pm or later.

I'm highly disappointed. I was looking forward to end of days as I was hoping it meant I might actually be allowed to sleep.

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 21/05/2011 09:09

Then technically it's the 22nd. Someone doesn't understand timelines. Anyway, if anyone does get beamed up, I'm blaming aliens.

theanonamouse · 21/05/2011 09:27

still nothing here my end ... im starting to think selling off my possesions for the rapture was a mistake Hmm...oh well at least i can be sure that the world will end when the mayans said it will 12 december 2012 Wink Wine

DD is watching every episode of waybuloo on iplayer repeatedly. i think i may well have been sent to hell

winnybella · 21/05/2011 09:31

Isn't it already after 6pm for New Zealand and Australia Hmm?

ScroobiousPip · 21/05/2011 10:21

Yup, 9.21pm here in NZ and still waiting....

LadyThumb · 21/05/2011 11:30

I've eaten all my chocolate, lots of cakes and biscuits, had a curry and 3 large bottles of wine - if the world doesn't end tonight I will have put on lots of weight, won't I? But if it does, then I don't have to worry!
