New Year...........
What are Accywebbers doing tonight........? As its the first time we have been offered babysitting services for 5 years we are off to manchester later this afternoon to push the boat out............cocktails at Cloud 23 (top of Hilton Hotel) slap up meal at Dimitri`s greek taverna just accross the road then a few drinks down Deansgate, aiming to be back at home with the kids to see in the New Year though, hence the early start.......Happy Days.......(and no doubt i`ll be dragged in a few shops along the way)

Re: New Year...........
Staying in and on my Doctors advice avoiding the bevvy. It will be the first time in the 18 years I have lived up here that I will be at home and sober on Hogmany.

Re: New Year...........
Well I'm siting down to a nice meal, cool bottle of white wine followed by liquor's and coffee and mints, then at midnight a nice fireworks display, all at Mallard Place. For the Fireworks, we just pop in the kitchen close the door keep the lights of and open the curtains and watch the sky's light up all over Ossy, and we don't have to put up with drunken idiots making a clown of themselves, plus its nice and warm too, sorted

Re: New Year...........
I will be going out for a couple of hours, have a sitter available so might as well make the most of it. It'll be a sober one but should be fun (Dont like drinking knowing ive to get up early with the boys, twins and a hangover dont mix)

Re: New Year...........
I am trying to normalise my sleep pattern - to 7 or 8 hours in one lump at night, so I had plans to be in bed.
Doh! - forgot about the fireworks - will have to nap this afternoon instead and start trying to be 'normal' again in 2009

Re: New Year...........
New year has never been a night that I have gone out, always enjoyed bringing the new year in with my two boys...this year they are both at two different parties... but I still don't fancy going out as it will be pure madness just trying to get a drink!!
I could also work as I know they need all the staff they can get but don't want to be knackered for New years day as have a special meal during the day followed by a special evening
So I think I will join my best friend down the road, have a few bevvies but not too much so I know when my lads are home

Re: New Year...........
We stop in with the kids, get a few party snacks etc, then at midnight watch all the fireworks from the front door. The advantage of living on top of the mountain is you can see for miles
