Thanks girlies

The feast was a huge success! I have eaten so much food i seriously need to diet in the new year. We had the duck christmas day, which was gorgeous thanks to Waitrose and their stunningly yummy apricot and orange stuffing!
A fight did break out mid afternoon. I have 2 x 2yr old grandaughters. One of them asked to climb on nannies lap, which incensed the other one, who decided to try pulling her off by the ankles!! pmsl :rofl: after a bit of bitch slapping and intervention from grandpa, order was resumed with a tin of quality street :thumbup:

Boxing day, we had my son in laws parents over. She is disabled in a wheelchair and it was great to see her. We had a big beef roast!! :unsure:

Then.... the next day, my sister decides to call and invite a load of us out to a restaurant for dinner. OMG!! i feel fatter than a stuffed turkey now :lol:

There's supposed to be a lunar eclipse tonight, but I haven't seen much in the news. About 7pm I think. It'll probably be too overcast here. I remember seeing one on a clear night and it was great.

Interesting way to usher in a new year and a new decade.

Happy celebrations, and a wonderful 2010, everyone,

Bev.

Happy New Year

Best NYE i have ever had!! But boy have i paid for it since :unsure:

We were right opposite the eye. Fireworks were just spectacular. I have done the Syndey ones 4 times and loved them, but sorry, London wins hands down! :thumbup:
Its not just the fireworks but the whole atmosphere. BBC1 did a live broadcast with massive speakers blaring out dance music right along the embankment. Looking down the street seeing a sea of people jumping up and down to the music was fabulous.

Noe all i have to do is unlock my leg muscles which have been like bricks ever since ... i have been a sick woman so dancing and walking in one night has taken its toll. But oh so worth it!!

Nice on Flea. I just watched the London fireworks on UT and they looked great. It will be our turn to see them in person next year.:thumbup:

Lucky bugger. I missed my dear friend's wedding on there last year. It looked amazing.....2010....I'm bloody going home. There's such an amazing energy there at times. Here it feels so predictable and boring. We were at a total loss at what to do on New Year. We finally spent it with good friends from when we first arrived so it was fitting to see them again. He is also my hubby's boss and we broke the news that were going. I now can breathe again knowing my lovely husband is 100% on board. Hooray.

Anyway, just wanted to say Happy New Year. I'm delighted for you.
