Happy New Year everyone :kiss:
 
I was going to phone home to Oz but decided to wait until NYD. We still have a few hours to go here. I am hoping for us at least, the New Year is less stressful and brings less loss and health issues. I hope everyone else can look forward to happy, healthy and satisfying 2011.:rose:

The past couple of years I've been able to ring Jounar and celebrate his new year before either going out or staying in to celebrate mine.

That's fun. :)

Happy New Year
 
Don't forget your turnip greens and black eyed peas. Greens for wealth and peas for good luck tomorrow. I guess other cooked greens work as well. Collard and such.
 
I still have 15 hours until new years, but happy new years, everyone!
 
A little under 4 hours here. Staying in as Mads is working the doors, so no kiss at midnight for me :(
 
Gotta work, tonight, like always. I thought about taking some kind of sparkling drink or something. Non alcoholic, of course. Anybody got any suggestions on one with good taste but no buzz?

Sparkling Cider or Sparkling Grape Juice are non-alcoholic & taste good. But somehow they're not the same thing...
 
Just like you Aussies, always wanting to be first. I'll bet you planned it that way.

I'm in the future!

The only places further in the future are NZ, plus a scattering of islands, including Kiribati, which nudges right up against the date line.
 
A tad over 5 hours left of 2010 where I am. Staying home doing the same things I do every night, whoop de do.

Happy New Years all!

Depends. We drink sparkling cider from wine glasses. Yeah, you won't get buzzed, but it's very festive. We prefer it to wine or champagne or whatever.
 
And to you, Lizzie

I still have a couple of hours to go, but I'll be sipping from a delicate little champagne glass (or maybe champoo - cheap bottle) in 2.25 hours.

To your health, wealth and happiness in 2011!
