Maybe you have some Bangladeshi's near you, they are 6 hours in front of us

Staying in. Just had a nice hot bubbly bath, and sat in my nice warm fluffy dressing gown and cosy ugg type boots, sipping wine, surfing and watching TV. Rest of family doing their own thing. Hubby working, but we wouldn't be going out anyway if he wasn't. Haven't done that for years, it's usually complete madness.

You kiss people when the new year strikes - licking them is novel

Seems a new tradition is becoming more and more entrenched in my area , members of one 'ethnic' group think its ok to go out at mid-night and shoot their guns into the air , the dumb idiots seem to forget that what goes up , eventually has to come down . Fortunatly the sheriffs dept. is getting wise and now sets up sound moniters which can recognize the sound of gunfire and triangalate the location , and go and pick the clowns up before damage is done .

Don't forget an extra second before Big Ben chimes.....or is that still undergoing maintenance.

i'm not saying it to you AGAIN, already did that in another thread

I'm staying at home, watching telly and having a few JD and cokes.

I've always disliked going out on New Year's Eve because I can't be doing with random strangers coming up to me at midnight, flinging their bulk at me and screeching 'Happy New Year'.

Due to this if I did go out I would come home before midnight.

We'll go out Friday or Saturday when this will not be happening, nor will we have to stand at the bar for half an hour to get a drink.

Hope you all have a happy and healthy 2009.

New year in Spain.....Fireworks like you wouldn't believe.
Happy new year everyone.

MargaretR · 31-12-2008, 23:08

We have another hour to go yet
