The New Years Eve Kick-Off

This is it folks, the kick-off for the New Years Eve celebrations. No messing around here, you can bet on it. Dinner will be a great big fry-up, served with fresh orange juice. There won't be a pudding but there'll be a lot of cake, proudly served with a couple of tins of coke.

No point messing about, I'm in it to enjoy myself tonight, not just tonight either. Tomorrow, the alarm will go off at around seven o'clock and the computer will be warming up along with the kettle. As soon as the coffee is ready then I'll be online, bright and cheerful.

Hangover - what bloody hangover???

Not my style, not my style at all now.

It's two days until the most difficult time

The most difficult time is just forty-eight hours away now. Saturday night is New Years Eve and can be a difficult time to stay sober. Let's face it, it can be a difficult time to stay conscious.

I'll happily be getting stuck in that night, no messing about. I won't be holding back with the cans of coke or the good, strong cups of tea either.

Oh, just about forgot the biscuits - I won't hold back there either, especially the chocolate ones. They might give me toothache but no worse than that.

Drink will be a lot worse though.

Hope you had a happy, sober Christmas

I hope you all had a good, happy and sober Christmas. I would have said this on Christmas day but the electricity was off - again. A good excuse to go to bed early with a tin of coke. It had to be a tin of coke as there was no chance of a cup of tea. Such is life.

Nearly Christmas!!!

Still off the drink but it's nearly Christmas and I can perceive problems there. I can see me going into the hotel to wish everyone a very merry Christmas and only remaining vertical for a short time. Maybe I'm paranoid.
