What are people doing tonight?
Quiet night or night out?

Hot pot for dinner followed by a family quiz. 10 year old says he wants to stay up until midnight - he might be turning the lights off as I am usually in bed by 10pm.

The village is hosting a BBQ, bar, music and organised firework display by the lakeside, so we'll be going to that. Good chance to catch up on local gossip...

Quiet night in for us . Might crack a can or two of cider , but want to stay soberish as I worry about son going out revelling with his mates after his house party.

I used to love New years Eve in my younger days, going to the pubs and night clubs ( except for the dreaded all day hangover the next day ). But hate it nowadays.

Had no plans so have got tickets for the pub as they have a band on.

Friends coming over from Stone, dinner at The Cock and there's a singer on in the bar. We've got our table for the whole evening so if the bar gets too busy we can retreat to the restaurant.

Found this message on Stafford Dismembered this morning

£3 to get in the Holmcroft tonight. There was a big punch up in there last year if you fancy it?

Nearly got tickets for that but things are a bit too unpredictable at present to commit to it. Hope it’s been/being a good night

Yes, New Years Eve's for the youngsters, not us old gits.

Ooh my head.

A proper black coffee now and you'll be fit for opening time !

Sons mate & GF turned up at his house party in shock. They'd gone for a meal in a restaurant beforehand and a gentleman at the next table had a cardiac arrest and died in front of them .

Was a quiet night for us , although I had a few cans of cider and a Pina Colada (hubby wasn't drinking as going to hospital tomorrow) . I finally slept after sons text to say he'd got home safely after 3am. They'd got a taxi to a nightclub in town at 12.15am after seeing in the new year at his house.
He's rather worse for wear today ....so glad those days are over for me & hubby

I couldn't bring myself to celebrate. I miss my Dad and it was our first Xmas and New Year without him. Year to the day we learned his diagnosis so I'm just feeling sad now. I spent the evening watching things, rest of the family were gaming and chatting with friends over the internet.
