How would YOU spend the last day of everything?
It’s been a while since I’ve taken part in a meme, let alone started one—but today, I’m asking a selection of fellow bloggers a very simple question, assuming we’re all still around today and over the next week at least, in order to provide answers. The question is this: how would you spend your last day on Earth, not only your last day but the last day for everything?
It’s the day some people have feared, when the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is switched on in an expensive quest to find the so-called ‘God particle’ otherwise known less sensationally as the Higgs boson. It is said to be crucial to gaining a greater understanding of the universe—assuming it exists, and can be found—and is thought to give everything its mass.

A neighbour of ours who is becoming a very good friend kind of came out to me on Thursday as a devout Roman Catholic, and decidedly non-judgemental. It serves as a timely reminder of the foolishness of judging people en masse, be they religious, gay, male, female… Whatever. I told her a little of my pagan beliefs, and she was genuinely interested and enthusiastic. I think it matters to her that we’re a spiritual household, not what spirituality we hold to. And that’s very nice to find in a person of a different faith to one’s own. She’s also kindly agreed to look after our hens while we’re away at a pagan festival this weekend. She apparently loves hens and wanted to keep some, but her husband didn’t, so it didn’t happen!
