If i wake up in the morning to find that i am still here........you have a lot to answer for Aunty!! ;-)

Yes you are correct.

"Lots of snow still in the Rockies. Favourite places are Alberta, Victoria, British Columbia".

That's the land based areas visited. The cruise was off the west coast towards Alaska if I remember correctly.

Well hmm, if AuntyS's friend has been seeing snow in Canada in the last three weeks ... I do believe something must have frozen over already!

Snow in May, no, not generally. None that I've seen this year. But hmm, some backwater province may have had some recently, that's true, Alberta or something. Not much cruising in Alberta. ;)

Along with the floods both east and west, and then the fire that burned down half the town of Slave Lake on the weekend. Awfully danged early for forest fires, and they don't usually manage to burn down towns here. This was quite a bad event. No deaths, though.

Snowstorms, floods and fires, all in the same week or two. End times upon us for sure ...

Ah, perhaps your friend is seeing snow on coastal mountains. That's Sylvia's department. I've never been west of the foothills, in that Alberta place, and then only momentarily.

Thats upset me.I am off to Ireland on the 22nd and i will lose me money lol

Well, we're all angels waiting to go, aren't we, so why not, Mummo, ha, ha! xxx

Edit : most of us, but there are still one or two little devils around. :P

It appears to be.

Must check and see if my daughter is on any board of management overseeing "the end".

That woman is late for anything and everything. One of the peoples of the universe who definitely keeps her own time.

"The End" is running late then? ;-)

It's morning time. About 6.20 am and I had to sign in before GR would allow me admittance to the site.

And the writey in box really isn't behaving itself too well. I have to type really slowly or it does not work.

We here are forecast storms, heavy rain, mini tornados and have been advised to take storm weather precautions.

There is still time but it looks like I will at least have to do the shopping. Drats I was looking forward to tripping off to my mortal toil with a few dollars in my pocket.

Message to the Canadians. Big tick of approval from a friend of mine. For the last three weeks she has been touring your country and been on a cruise offshore (best place to cruise). Received a post card from her yesterday. Loves the people, the snow, the places she has visited and has had a thoroughly enjoyable time.

We are waiting to see if she will need language and cultural rehabilitation when she returns to work in a week's time.

I have decided to finish my bottle of wine tonight ..... just in case ;-)

I fear we are in for another Great Disappointment ...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Disappointment

"The Great Disappointment was a major event in the history of the Millerite movement, a 19th century American Christian sect that formed out of the Second Great Awakening. ... Thousands of followers, some of whom had given away all of their possessions, waited expectantly. When Jesus did not appear, October 22, 1844 became known as the Great Disappointment."

As with so many things I procrastinate about, I'm afraid I just didn't get around to giving all my stuff away today ... Oh well, there's always next time.

Just thought l'd pop on to say " thanks " to you all for the laughs, the sad times and the memories on the boards. :P :
Hopefully we will see each other in heaven ;-)
Ha ha ha . x

B****r - I was going to put my runner beans in tomorrow! S*d it - I'm off to have another voddie - 'bye everyone - see you in heaven and I'll introduce you to my dead rellies :S

We've got Ofsted in next week (I teach) - Have I stayed late every night this week preparing for nothing?

I'll just have to stay in tonight and watch all the films I've recorded on sky.

Drat- I wanted to see the last of the Harry Potter films due to be released this summer

Interesting......
Someone I know is flying to UK from the East tomorrow.
I wonder if they will land while we still exist here ?

I've just been out and bought 2 birthday cards for next week too.
Should I not send them?

I'm wondering ... the Aussies and such are now asleep.

What happens if they just don't wake up?

Well, the good little Aussies and Kiwis who get raptured, anyhow.

The Brits will be asleep when the Aussies and such should be waking up ...

So yup, it's only the Canuckistanians who will know what happened!


It's 2 p.m. in Canada as I type.

That makes it 7 p.m. in the UK. Oh wait, they aren't on daylight time yet in the UK? And yet the timestamps on posts above mine are after 6 p.m. Aargh.

Well, the internet tells me it's UTC/GMT + 10 hrs in Sydney.

So if it's 7 p.m. in the UK it's 5 a.m. in Sydney. So we don't have long to wait ... unless they all sleep in on Saturday ...

RR - was that word 'Rapture' or 'Rupture' ????




Trust the world to end when I've just cleaned my windows.......

throws down cloth in disgust!

Anyone remember where I stored Noah's Ark?

That means i need to replenish the freezer then. Shucks!!

Ahem. Canadians will be here long after the rest of you are gone. At least five hours after those Poms, anyhow. Longer if you're Sylvia!

Like rats and cockroaches, we are.
