Happy New Year



Happy New Year to everyone. We wish you all the very best for the coming year.
We had a lovely evening, playing cards and dominoes with Reece and Karen. I actually won the dominoes game 'Mexican Train' but badly lost at Uno, which is as usual. I don't think I have ever won a Uno game. The rules for this game vary depending on the interpretation. We call them German, French or English rules and tonight we had another variation - Australian. It is a family tradition to play cards on New Years Eve and we missed all our fellow players who were off celebrating New Year elsewhere. Donna and Darren went to a pub in Bexley - hope they did not get too drunk! Emma and Steve went to a party. Scott, who is now 16, went off to his own party. Aaron, Kylie and Billie celebrated New Year in Holland with firework celebrations that sounded like World War 111.
The firework display in London was fantastic. If you do not live in the UK make sure you take a moment to watch them on TV. They are impressive! I wonder who paid for them?


Happy New Year.
