We intend to spend it rather quietly as usual. Living bin a rather large coastal tourist town it can become rather hectic in some places. I will prepare a special dinner possibly Beef & Reef with French crepes to finish off with also naturally a good wine to with the meal.
Next day is supposed to be a very hot day mid/high 30s C a good day to stay inside and keep cool.

Any way all the best for the New Year have a safe and happy New years eve & New years day.

As you can see the water is shallow, perfect for children and swimming also excellent boating with plenty of good fishing close by.

I'm having a geek party. A small gathering of miscellaneous geeks are coming over for a BBQ, Top Gear marathon and board/card games (so far I think we are playing Munchkin, Carcassonne, EcoFluxx, Chez Geek, Lying for Lemons, Frank's Zoo and probably some version of Scrabble)
I decided it was better to have NYE here to save trekking into the city and risking becoming adorned with someone's ex-dinner.

New Year's Day will involve eggs and bacon and lots of water for the hung-over ones, and then sending the stragglers home once they are OK to drive. Geeks party hard

NYE had some drinks at a local pub & NY day, stayed indoor & watched some TV after lunch. It was quite sunny today, after a few rainy days.

worked the overnight... so I slept all day.

NYE - we went to our neighbors house for some snacks and what would have been cocktails if we weren't both working the overnight. It was a nice little gathering though and a great way to end 2007.

The person I worked with that night is a friend of mine outside of work, so we made it fun.

inkodinko.... I feel for you. With me it was water from the upstairs apartment leaking into my kitchen AND living room.

Of course, 5 x people on the executive committee & property manager all away.
Noone left their contact details.

Ultimate irony. Unit with the dodgy pipes above mine is that of the chairman of the committee! Nice work.

Took me 3 days to track him down.

Ah, nice wish-ga. I'm glad I didn't have leaks cause that would have actually meant I had to put effort into something. I'm glad I'm not the only one who had to suffer
