Malcom witnesses the white flash at the end of the world

It was a Monday. I hate Mondays. For 10 years, every Monday I’ve sat at my desk and stared at a computer screen typing endless amounts of code.

Well maybe not every Monday. I think about 6 years ago we took a long weekend and drove to Inverness.

Then there was time I had my operation, about 2 years ago. I was off for a whole week.

Then there was that Monday last year with the unexpected snowfall… on 12th July. Boy that took us by surprise.

I look out of the window at the blue skies, I kinda wish I had made some different decisions in life, I wish I could be free to spend my days drinking pina colada on beach in Waikiki.

Then I see a large white light appear in the blue sky, which suddenly engulfs everything.

I look around, we’re all here. Strange, huh?
