Tomorrow is the first blank page of a 366 page book. Write a good one.

Amen to that Vernon

It's just another day to me, albeit another day at double time. Kerrching!

 

[MontyVeda]

That would be a nightmare for me too lol..

Mine have been similar... but when half the house is going all 'mwah mwah' and "HAPPY NEW BLAH!! ...others are demanding silence because they just have to try to phone everyone who's not there in person.
I'm not sure which smiley is most appropriate... , , or .

10 mile TT in the morning so its a nice meal , a few beers and an early night for me .

Hospital bed. Don't think even the kids and my wife have been invited anywhere after Xmas day's disaster. - They went to friends for dinner, only to find out near the end of the day that the couple had split up a week before Christmas, but they had already invited my wife. She though the atmosphere was weird.

New Year's Eve has long been a non event for me really. Too many spent in late teens, 20s and early 30s having too much to drink. The last time was about 20 years ago. I do enjoy a drink, but know when I've had enough.

Tonight will be a simple meal (too much over the last week for us to be interested in cooking or socialising) so we'll share a bottle or two and then a glass of (cheap) bubbly on the stroke of midnight just down the road looking across the fjord to the fireworks over Oslo - if it isn't too cloudy.

In a different way altogether, I'm more looking forward to 'getting out of my mind' with a few bhang lassis when I go to India in about four weeks time.

Regardless, Happy New Year to one and all however and wherever you celebrate.

Hospital bed. .

Sorry Fossy, although this does remind me how lucky I am to be healthy, able and invited to spend time with friends.

You'll just have to Big-it-up next year!!

I think a few people on this thread either need new Friends...or their Friends do.

I cant believe how ungrateful so many people are for others hospitality, kindness and effort. If you don't wish to celebrate, that's fine and its your choice. There is nothing wrong with doing what YOU want...but going along to someone's bash...just to hate it and moan about it, what's the point in that. Far better to just stay at home, watch a film and let others enjoy the hospitality.

Sounds pretty Awesome to me.

In bed earlier tonight as up before dawn to get a nice long ride in nice and quiet country lanes.

Cold night forecast in SE so look out for slippery roads

I might go to my local pub for a few pints but that's about it. I can't understand why people go to those massive firework displays in the big cities. Not only are you crammed in like sardines in a tin but i learnt the other day that the London and Edinburgh ones are sold out, meaning that you actually have to pay to watch them!

 

[vickster]

What's wrong with having to pay to watch the fireworks? Why should the taxpayer fund a load of tourists (and drunks) to watch free fireworks!?

I shall be with family, a glass of bubbly or two and the fireworks on TV!

 

[SteveF]

A night out, with family and friends (3 generations) in one of their welcoming homes , there will be food, there will be drink, there will be laughter and conversation. No one will get completely pi$$ed even though some will be a little slow in the morning..

Edinburgh ones are sold out, meaning that you actually have to pay to watch them!

And nae alcohol permitted.
