    Evening all. Just popped in to wish you all a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR.

    I'm planning on getting VERY drunk, as I'm giving up booze for January.

    OH is taking me out, then we're off to the river to watch the fireworks.

    If you're watching on TV look out for me - I'll be the one passed out on Blackfriars bridge. :0)

    ....... it will probably be tomorrow though, as she will probably take her DH out, get him drunk, then raid his pockets :p lol

    How the devil dare you Sparky!!!! :mad: I'm raiding his pockets when he's in the shower - BEFORE he gets the chance to spend all that lovely change (notes, cheques...whatever!!!;)) What a great sum for just part of 2008! I've already started one for the road (so to speak) after you saying about yours on the previous thread, a great idea. Have a GREAT New Year Sparky, Mrs S too!!! :D
