I was telling the doggie walkers about going up to Trafalgar Square when I was younger and they were saying that you had to have a ticket now :-0

Watched the lovely Sydney celebrations. Dtr, s-in-l and grandson 2 there - making their way home in time for start of work and uni.

Looking forward to seeing their photos.

Belle, I read about the ticketing in London - people think it’s not right.

Evening Joy <3 :-D

If you don't know about the ticketing it could put a dampener on your celebrations :-0

You’re right Belle and I bet there are some who don’t yet know.

I hope they’ve got their thermals Joy. They will be cold.

Dubai is next to reach midnight. ;-)

No idea, Belle. She said she’d let me know flight details but has completely forgotten so I shall have to message her. :-0

We spent all Boxing Day tracking our son’s flight. Have they got a direct flight Joy.

Got some nice photos of them in the barmy army camp and the hotel and MCG and it looks as though they’ve had a great time.

My bestie rang this arvo to see what I was doing and I said nothing - I had already had a glass with my late lunch. Not keen on wine usually but this is a lovely sweet wine that I bought two bottles of after my old school pal gave me a bottle to try. :-D

I know Belle. I like to track flights that family are on. Amazing leaps in technology during the last few years.
