New years eve

Sad for the organisers. I hope this bloody rain stops for this evening's event in St Peters Square

It'll be a shame for the organisers, after all the effort they've put in.

ditto Edinburgh, a lot people will have planned their trip there for months/years and the local economy will be hit hard.

Cos I’m a foc who else remembers standing outside their house at midnight with a piece of coal, a piece of bread and a coin waiting to be let in, coal was for staying warm bread was you don’t go Hungary and the coin was you always had money in your purse for the following year.

Mrs Vienna made me do that every year.

I'm in Tenerife which makes nights like these a bit more bearable. I'm not a youngster these days so getting hammered isn't my thing, though obviously I'll have a few. I like the fact you can walk about from bar to bar, though most are extremely busy. A lot are also charging and have become ticket only on NYE, something that didn't really happen when I first started coming over twenty years ago. Part of that is to keep the travellers out too. The highlight of the evening is watching the fireworks on the beach at midnight.

Also who remembers having to pay to get in a pub for new year.

Yes, I remember my older siblings doing all that, along with my neighbours. Going out the back door and entering through the front door too. Never had paid to get into a pub on NYE and I never will, mind you, I don’t venture out at NYE anymore these days. All the best, everyone.

Happy new year to everyone. Currently staying in hotel due to issues with our plumbing and no water. Been here since Sunday and just extended stay to Saturday (at least). Way things are going not sure if my wallet or liver will give up first. Potentially a bill of up to £3k
