Millenium bug re-post
1999 inspired strange fantasies in many people's heads. At best, there were fears that hoovers and washing machines would pack up. At worst, some feared armageddon and the end of the world as we know it.

I went to stay with a friend who lived out in the sticks in Leicestershire and had a huge garden. He showed me the reinforced fence he'd just completed, complete with floodlights. Also the cellar he'd dug under the house, filled with tinned peaches, beans and long life pita bread. He'd tried to get a gun, he informed me, and failed. He'd just have to be vigillant.

"What the fuck is all this for?" I protested.

He then explained that when the year 2000 began, there would be massive food and power shortages and that people from the village would descend on him with flaming torches, to raid his stash of food. he was prepared, he'd ride out the chaos.

He was still offering me rusty tins of peaches 5 years later.

(And yes, I did shag him.)

Slut.
Sorry. I'm possessed by the spirit of Godfrey Bloom.

So as it turns out, it was all to get you to shag him.
Great success.

No, it was because he genuinely convinced himself that people would starve and be driven to crazed, desperate attacks on his property

To be fair... no-one attacked his property, so his plan worked pretty well.
Especially with the bonus shag.

I'm not sure who the biggest idiot is here.

Would you prefer to stick to sensible, educational forums, where people aren't invited to post about daft, risky things they and others have done?
I can post some sensible stories about exes who haven't done outlandish things if you like, though that might be a tad boring.

Nope? Thought not.
