From the wrightys, the mayhem will ensue here in around an hour so i thought id get in early and wish all of stw, many happy and safe miles on the bike and a good healthy and prosperous year ahead. Party on 8)
We’re having a takeaway and some wine with my sisters in law – we won’t be up till midnight though, Wife last got an early shift tomorrow and the Sisters have got an early flight. Rock and roll us!
I was reminded earlier that the last time I went out for NYE will for the Millennium, it was that crap I haven’t bothered since. More than that though one of my mates couldn’t make it that night as she was heavily pregnant at the time, she’s going to another friends of ours for a party – her Son is dropping her off in his car ha ha. Shit I’m old ha ha.
I’ll be staying in to finish painting the bathroom. Need to finish it before going back to work. Plus I’m exhausted from not sleeping well for a few days. Probably be in bed by 11.
Mrs G is already asleep. If all goes to plan kids will be in bed and i will see in the new year playing Horde on GoW4. Or FH3. But hopefully at least playing the xbox for a change.
To family, such as I have.
To friends who care.
And to friends I thought cared but demonstrably don’t.
To acquaintences and work colleagues who provided kind words and hugs from the most unexpected of places.
To lost loves and friends.
And to new ones found.
To those spending NYE partying.
And to those sat at home on their own.
To those who had an awesome year.
And to those who this time last year were saying, “well, at least next year can’t get any worse.”
To the hope that the new year might see the country come to its senses.
To the hope that everything might seem better in the morning.
To everyone.
Cheers all.
So long, 2017. Don’t let the door hit you in the arse on the way out.
I look forward to typing absolutely nonsensical twoddle in your general direction in 2018. And probably the usual amount of casually photoshopped insults 🙂
Sorry to anyone who I may have stepped over the mark with on here during 2017 (most recently I said something to THM the other day that I’m actually not 100% proud of).
My resolution is not to look at or get involved with any political threads on here in future (as I have already outlined elsewhere) as it is a total waste of time and can result in me getting quite narky.
In any case, happy new year to all – ride more, argue less.
I would like to make a toast to lying, stealing, cheating and drinking.
If you’re going to lie, lie for a friend.
If you’re going to steal, steal a heart.
If your going to cheat, cheat death.
And if you’re going to drink, drink with me.
Guid New Year to one and all.
Happy New Year when it comes. We ended the year with a bike ride and are having a quiet night at home, but looking forward to a get together with family and friends tomorrow.
Thanks for all the laughs, debates and support at various times this year.
Happy New Year. It’s already been over for three hours where we are atm which would be the very glamorous transit lounge in Dubai airport. Only another hour to wait. :-/
Aye, all the best to each and everyone of you.
May 2018 bring you everything you wish for – and more.
@Cougar – does your comprehensive paeon above include trump; season of good will to all men and all that.
Sat in the kitchen solo with a bottle of whisky for the next hour or so, distracting a dog shit scared of fireworks so she doesn’t bark and wake the baby.
Happy New Year all*
*Unless you’re setting off fireworks anywhere near me, in which case I wish you a really shit year.
drugged the dog earlier as the local wealthy chav family started their fireworks at 5pm. She’s been stoned off her head all night, been quite nice and cuddly.
Happy New Year everyone, hope it’s better than the last one!
Just hitting the hut! Best mate back from oz for the first time in 3 years, and has brought his lovely new lady with him. Unfortunately we’ve seen her for all of 30 mins as she’s so flu’d up. A real shitter for them but we will make the most of our brief time together. Similarly i intend to make the most of 2018 in generalxxxxx
