I will NOT be going to the recently gone-upmarket (read gone-expensive) pub along the road which is having a special evening with a 5 course meal at £75 a head.

I believe they are having an Elvis impersonator. At that price I'd want Elvis himself - and John Lennon serving the drinks.

Happy New Year all.

Got together with some friends at there house, had a fantastic meal with plenty of bubbly and wine. Give my own house over to a group of teenagers (i know i must be mad), couldn't believe how clean and tidyish the house was when i got home at 3am this morning.

Had quite one the first one up here in 15 years and as I have work tomorrow not a lot of booze as I have work dayshift tomorrow. As I over did it on Boxing Day after work then went in pye eyed on the Tuesday dayshift it might be pushing it too far.

Here in our village, between Warrington and Altrincham, and it's called the Church Green (being as it's on the green next to the parish church).

I haven't heard how the night at the pub went but I am ready to murder 6 or 7 teenage lads who spent a couple of hours on our road, after midnight, fighting, shouting and being noisily sick after a party at a house opposite. If I can't kill them I might just kill the 16 year old girl whose party they'd been at - or her parents.

From the state they were in, I doubt they'll be conscious most of today. The girl was almost as bad, staggering around and screaming - but she'll be medicated OK, her mother's a doctor.

The pair above me were at it until 8 this morning so as they are likely to be in bed revenge is sweet. Plenty of heavy bass music to make the walls vibrate (which they are) will give them a dose of their own medicine. Will be the same tonight with them and I am working tomorrow so another sleepless night ahead.

Had a fabulous evening with friends at their bowling club. Brilliant act, and he certainly didn't cost £700! - I nearly fell off the chair laughing .... WHILST STILL REASONABLY SOBER!!

Got back late, stayed up with friends until about 3, and didn't get up until about noon the following day. Amazingly, was not particularly hung over!

We spent the New Year in Center Parcs and had a fab time. 12 adults and 4 kids in two large lodges for three days. At the countdown to New Year I was stood at the side of a lake with a bottle of fizz being passed around and a warm glow inside. Then we watched the fireworks and headed back to the lodge.

It was a really good way to spend New Year and was possibly the first one I've enjoyed in many years. Plus, by going away for a few days all normal life stopped and I didn't think about regular stuff once - it was fab!
