Happy New Year

2007 crept up on us when we were walking the dogs. I guess that's kinda apt, it encapsulates what we'll be doing a lot this year until SomePuppy is reliable around the house.

We knew it was midnight when a burst of merriment escaped from all the flats around us. We went back upstairs, had a glass of wine and turned on the TV to the countdown show. Which was pretty boring, full of strangely-styled TV artistes and the MC/host's idea of whipping up a party mood was to shriek "Somebody scream" and everybody did. I wonder what he would have done if nobody did.

By 12.30am, I was wondering if that was too early to go to bed on New Year's Day.

Happy 2007, everybody.
