Hogmonay
Started about 5pm with my sister, b-I-l and niece coming over. Joined a wee while later by some more relatives and some neighbours. We all had a good laugh watching 3 year old neighbour playing with my 3 year old black lab with a balloon - the dog carefully picking up the balloon by the knot each time!
Drink and food flowed and then the men went out to the man shed out the back, played darts and lit the wood burning stove and partook in some drink. Came back inside to toast the bells and then everyone slowly drifted out to the man shed with the stove burning well, the remnants of the food being reheated on the stove. Finally finished up about 3am.
New Years Day
Up about 11, walked the dog and cleared up the carnage in the house (can leave the man shed till another time). Up to my dad's for a steak pie meal - absolutely delicious.
Last night up to my missus' aunts for a New Years night party and more food and drink.
Today
Lazy morning, dog walk and then down to the inlaws for another steak pie meal.
Back to work tomorrow and detox will start on Monday!!!
