(Y)ear we go again . . ., Allis quiet on New Year's Day and also the following two thanks to the massive big bugger of a hangover, Arthur Century Awaits
Greetings to one and all of my dear, most beloved, faithful followers/friends/miscreants/hooligans. Keep looking to the skies, for there I be, waving and chugging as follows most likely.
‘The only way to spend New Year’s Eve is either quietly with friends or in a brothel. Otherwise when the evening ends and people pair off, someone is bound to be left in tears.’ – W.H. Auden
‘May your troubles last as long as your resolutions’ – anon
‘New Year’s Eve, where auld acquaintance be forgot. Unless, of course, those tests come back positive’ – Jay Leno
‘New Year’s Resolution: To tolerate fools more gladly, provided this does not encourage them to take up more of my time.‘ – James Agate
Haven’t gone through it yet but soon will – our hosts usually celebrate midnight at 9:00; it works for us!!
Happy New Year to you, Esme!! she waves to the clouds

I don’t normally drink at all, Esme, but as it’s New Year, and as I have a particularly fine bottle of potato sherry in the cupboard, I’ll be sure to raise a stiff one to you later.
