11/11/11 is only 5 days away now. Is this likely to be a magical combination date, something perilous, or perhaps a day like any other? Obviously none of us will know until the day has been and gone (plus or minus GMT!). There is some speculation here in the UK as to the possible significance of that date so has anyone out in NC got any thoughts on the subject? (can already hear...."load of mumbo-jumbo......superstitious b.....t" etc.etc. But there may just be some mathemeticians (try spelling that when you've had 3 Efes!) and/or astrologers among you who have some thoughts on any possible significance of this 'auspicious' date. Over to you!

Robert, I hope not, that is a *special* birthday for me and I was hoping my better half was going to buy me something really expensive, still, if it is the end of the world he can buy it the day before and use his credit card!

Numerologists would say dates such as these 11.11.11 and 12.12.12 are auspicious. But no one sceems to know why until after the event. So we wait. Will we be here on the 12th? Will mars have crashed to earth|? Will we all be changed into immortal super beings? Will we all win the Lotto? Or will it be just another tick tock of the clock until we reach the 12th (at least it won't be the 12th of never! (or will it!)

When I was younger these 'magical' dates came round only every 11 years, (eg. 6/6/66, 7/7/77, 8/8/88 etc).

But after the start of the 21st century turn of the century they've been happening every year (eg. 01/01/01, 02/02/02, 03/03/03 etc). 12/12/12 will be the last of this sequence!

Some interesting comments. In reply to msge. 2 - NC isn't separate from the rest of the world and since joining this forum over 2 years ago we've noticed many members have minds of their own and occasionally voice their opinions on a variety of topics outside of TRNC.



Msge. 6 - someone's done a lot of browsing! Interesting that, especially that 12.12.12 appears to be the last of these particular sequential dates.



Msge. 7 - yes, we also read about the possible significance of 21.12.12 although not as the 'end of the world' in the sense of some final act of destruction. A possible complete ending of the old order as we've always known it, and a totally new beginning. The mind boggles! Whatever, we've at least got Xmas 2011 to look forward to without worrying about the next 13 months.



Hattikins (msge 4) Think it might be safe for you to use his c.c. after all. Hope so!!
