The Old Bat and I don't do staying up to see in the New Year. We did when we used to have dinner with friends on New Year's Eve, but that fell by the wayside some years back. Now we moan about the lousy television programmes (we did again last night) and watch a DVD before going to bed at about the usual time. Last night was no different, except that we were a little later than usual going to bed as the film was longer than we expected. We were still awake when we heard the fireworks welcoming the new year.

Another thing I don't do is resolutions, although that is perhaps only part of the truth. I am still keeping one I made years ago - never to make another New Year's resolution.

We didn't stay up either. But that didn't keep the phone from ringing at about three minutes after midnight, interrupting what might have been a really nice night's sleep.
Happy New Year!!!

Now that is unkind!

And a Happy New Year to you both as well.
