The outstanding example of ecstatic customers was an Australian family. A young couple came in the shop and very quietly asked if there was anything vegan they could buy.

I'd spend time with my daughters, have a last Maccy D's, and perhaps go on a baking spree, knowing I wouldn't need to do the washing up! Who knew there could be plus sides to Armageddon.

I came across this book The Herbal Drugstore by Linda M. White and Steven Foster, and wondered if it's any good? Do any fellow ishers have it? If so, what do you make of it?

Quite right. Spend the last three days eating what you fancy, not what you need!

It's a story idea I had, so I'm finding out what people would actually do. All sorts of ideas/viewpoints welcome. It's not a philosophical question.

If you heard on the radio, tv or read in the newspaper that the world was ending in 72 hours, (and there's nothing anyone can do about it) what would you do with your last hours?

You reminded me that I was looking at doing this at one point. I knew someone with a garden that I could pitch it. I was struggling to find a room or flat anywhere at the time.

It would save me 400 euro a month rent, that's for sure. Plus another 260 euro for 2 months electricity.
If it weren't so cold, wet and windy here 99% of the time, I would consider the tent more seriously.

Well said that man.
