I dont go out to after the Bells ,of to brothers house around 12.30.

Coupla nights at the seaside as always.

I HATE New Years Eve..,,I will stay in and probably be in bed by about 11 while husband works and get propositioned with promises of sex for fares...still last year he had a 'far slag' lookylikey and a bloke proposition him...he said if he'd had to choose he'd have gone for the bloke!

Not a huge fan of New year - I always get reflective but last new year's eve was the best ever and I am hoping that this year will  be the same.

I don't like NYE much - we usually stay in, have a nice meal, a few drinks and in bed before midnight

The things some birds will do eh!

Same as the rest of the holiday season..sat on me own watching the box and stuffing my face probably.. 

I love NYE's now...    we have a family games tournament night...   using games from the PS2, PS3 & Wii  (Buzz Quiz Games etc)...   and we have small prizes such as Lush Bathbombs, Gadgets, vodka jelly (for the older family members), and the grand prize this year will be a £10 Facebook Credits Card!    (plus hubby usually produces surprise prizes ...  I got perfume one year! )

All this is accompanied by some bubbly, chips n dips, and nibbles...  

We have a quiz break to watch the fireworks on the telly at midnight!

Dinner wirh MrB and kids...get the Scrabble and Trivial Pusuits out and just have a giggle...probably in bed before midnight complaining about the fireworks!!!!!!!


Mind you...I may slope off too Dittys!!!

Do...      

there will be many varieties of vodka jelly

We'll be staying in, eating too much and maybe making a start on the Buffy boxed set (finally!)

I don't like NYE ...... I have to avoid eye contact with my sis for weeks before hand, to try and get out of going out to the pub if I drink I get all maudlin and start wailing "where have all the years gone"

So it will be a teetotal evening..spent indoors with my son, desperately trying to pretend we're still in the Christmas Bubble.....and maybe pop in here to spend a bit of time with a few of you lot!

(or alternatively I'm cadging a lift with MrsB to Ditty's )

I KNEW IT!!!!!

I knew you were preparing to enter the 2 week bubble that excludes us all!

Considering where we all live Ducky, surely you should pick me up on the way??!!

there is a part of me now... that wishes 'the others' would go do something else... so I could ship you two down for the evening!

Still...   next year I reckon Ickle will be out partying... and the tradition of NYE being a family event will be gone....

Soooooo......  you could come here & start a new tradition...   NYE's forum bird house invasion!

Yeah... its a bit of a pish take....  "could you just pop up for me first?"    Well done Duckster!

Well come on........I don't wanna be driving when there's vodka jelly on offer!

You caught me red handed mister.

The Invasion of Essex 2011-2012. Twill be legendary

*tuts*...    You can have Ickles room!    You'd like it in there...

   I just told Mr Ditty...    he said thats fine with him...     He'll take the boy down to the flat in London for some serious boy time with his brothers... 

Blimey....  i think I have just been given the go ahead for a party ..... in a years time! 

Wow......slap on the back for Mr D the Spontaneous.

(I won't tell him you said that)

Oooooh.....PAAAAAAAAAAAARTYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY...woo-hooooooooo...and just enough time to lose weight and find THE outfit and shoes!!!!!!

Jim Jams & slipper boots sound good to me! 

I have picked out my slipper boots already

Can I wear festive deely boppers please?? I have new ones every year!!!

yep... 

hows about these ones...

Ooooh..nice....they are soooo me!!!!!

these ones are cute.. 

 


For Ducky

For Ditty xx

I WANT THAT!!!!!

I'm not that bothered by New Year these days even though I'm Scottish.I remember when I was a kid and in my teens etc(I'm 54)  it was great time.We would put on our good clothes,get the glasses washed and ready for "The Bells" Midnight,and await our "First foot" .This was always my Uncle Jimmy,he was my dads batchelor  brother and was a great laugh.Then my aunt and uncle and their daughter  would  come  up  too,a few others and we'd have a party.No one got overly pissed we'd sing songs etc.
My dad would go with his bottle of whisky and first foot the neighbours,good times.All gone now,I feel rather sad at |New Years now.Oh I've got younger relations etc,but they party every weekend nearly.New year to me has lost it's sparkle...God I'm gonna end up with drink in me hand and be a  maudling auld besom! Cheers.

Good to know there's Ditty's party next year to look forward to, I'll be ready for it by then

I will be watching telly and bringing the New Year in


 

Good company, good drinks, and good music.... 
Wishing you a great time, Karms. Have a good 'un

ooohhh the subby! Have a ball! x

This year a lady at work is getting married NYE and she's having a "wedding party" at her house in the evening - so that's where Mr LB and me will be going
