I will be in bed well before 9pm too [I hope] snuggled up with my new kindle and a pile of books incase I cannot choose!

Am I to partake of the 'feast' Syl has cooked for breakfast?? [I should be up by 7am if I get to bed as planned - but shan't be up at 3am!!!]

What time will Sylvs still be up at???

Happy New Year too ....

Have just helped meself to some of nearly everything from Sylvia's dinner.

Just the job, as Mr C and I don't like going out NYE.

Prefer New Year's Day - blank canvas, clean slate that sort of thing.

Is it just me, or do others go mad cleaning the house so there's no old muck carried into the next year?

Can't clean nowadays (haven't been able to for about 3 years now so you can just guess what it looks like ! ;-) :-(

Never mind, I am still here !! (with all of you!)

Hi Marie!

I prefer NYD too! I do stuff that I like doing - reading, playing on internet etc etc - start the way you mean to go on I say!!! I agree with you - blank canvas.

Good lord - no I dont clean! - my house is only properly cleaned about 4 times a year [Christmas being one of them] when it is either a special occasion or family are coming round for a get together! I HATE cleaning!

And .... what is the kissing folk you dont know when you go out NY Eve???? Why would you want to??? lol

I hope that Cyns doesnt read this ..... about cleaning!!!! Shall we delete what we have said before she catches us???

Getting full now - but will make some more room when I have had a rest!

Must just be me (and possibly Cynthia!) with the cleaning thing. I'm not much of a cleaner at the best of times - house too big and us too busy!

Well Lainie - many decades ago I would have like the NY kissing! Not now, you don't know where they've been.

My ears are burning!!


I don't do the 'New Year' house cleaning thingey but I did pop round with a duster and the hoover this morning. We had a houseful last night so I just wanted to get it straight.


I am keeping my eye on that creme brulee......Sylvs knows it is my favourite and it looks extra scrummy tonight... :-D :-D


Mind you, I have just rummaged in my fridge and found some raspberries left over from last night........delicious with cream they were..... :-D




Talking of kindles......my daughter bought herself one this morning and seems quite taken with it. She also bought a cover for it - my word, they aren't cheap!!! My OH asked me to go on the website and print out the guidelines so he can look at them on paper!



I made a birthday card for my daughter and, because she likes Audrey Hepburn, I put lots of photos of her in it especially from the My Fair Lady film. Grandson said they were pictures of an 'old lady'........... :-S

Audrey Hepburn....now, she was a beauty

I also thought that Ingrid Bergman was stunning too

My house is not as clean as I would like it, HID does a good job when he has too....and he will have too before next sat as the landlords want to come into the house to get something out of the loft and to take a look at the Eucalyptus tree (they think it may need cutting back).

I bought HID a kindle not noticed if he has been reading anything on it unless he reads in bed? I did mention he could get his newspaper on there, but wanted to know how he was meant to do the crossword?

I am now adjourning to my bed for the remainder of this year. Hopefully I will be well away in the land of nod before the fireworks begin exploding.

May I wish each and everyone a Happy New Year. <3

We still have a little less than 9 hours to wait before midnight arrives.


we're not going out .............. OH went to the butcher's and bought a chicken this morning, so we'll have a nice roast chicken dinner. I'll make sage and onion stuffing, and he'll do all the rest.


Then we'll do our own thing(s) for the rest of the evening, until it gets close to midnight. IF we stay awake until then, we'll watch the New Year on the TV

................ except that far too often, they just show us the Times Square event, which happened 3 hours earlier :-(

Over 12 hours ago we had all our hoo haa... and I read a book until the crackers stopped making a racket in our street.

I think that is funny Jax... HID wanting to know how he can do his crossword on a kindle... I assumed if you can type on one as well as read you can do it.. but not a techno... but when I finally get a kindle.. I will find out...

Happy New Year to you all and may you all have a good year... even Fans... ;-)
