Obviously Garion believes in all that Mayan prophecy shit that says the world will end in 9 days' time. :roll:

Unless he means the last one WE as individuals will see (as we'll be dead by 13/13/13).

I can tell you exactly what I was doing on 11/11/11 at 11:11:11.

I was singing in a Remembrance Day performance service - the word "Tranquil", and the second hand ticked onto the '11' as we sang "quil"...

(I'd had the moment lined up in my diary for several years, but had no idea what I'd be doing until the moment came.)

It's a good job I wasn't the organist on that occasion - I wouldn't have been able to watch my watch so easily.
