New Years
So...... New Years approachs fast, blisteringly fast some may say. What plans do you people have for New Years Eve? Up to anything exciting? Adventureous? Or just another night? Do tell.
For me, I am going down to Palmerston North, a city down the south part of the North Island (for those of you who know a little about NZ) for a few days over this period. Infact leaving tomorrow. Having a small private party at a friends house in the said city. Should be fun, looking forward to it.
So, yes you people, what ya doing?

Alcohol will play a heavy part in my night, that much is certain.
Probably will be visiting my friends.

This is the wisest thing I have heard all year.
Plans?
One of the alcohol-free zones of Sydney Harbor. There shall be many interesting conversations with many international visitors, or failing that a lot of fireworks.

Large party at a friend's house in the woods. Perfect scene for a slasher flick.

I'm on the door at my girlfriends parents pub. She's working behind the bar so we get to spend it together. Together we are getting £120. Add onto that the ~£50 we saved by staying in and new years becomes very profitable.

The Usual New Year's --
At home with my wife, sharing a bottle of wine and maybe a movie until she crashes.
Then, some Civ2 until I do the same.

I have a BIG bottle of booze and I plan to drink it all!
Also I haven't slept much, and eaten much because my stomach kind of turns today, but hey, that's the recepie for NIGHT OF THE LEGENDS.

I'll be up in Boston visiting friends. We're going out for dinner, but staying in for the night. We've finally gotten sick of going out to bars, fighting through crowds, paying $4+ for a beer... **** that. Gimme the deck of cards and a beer from the fridge.

Arrian, exactly. We don't do that anymore either. Clubs are packed.. too packed. And bars too.

Pekka, I've actually never seen anyone wear safety goggles on new years.  Damn pussies  Probably a good idea though. Then again if a LA BOMBA 5000 XXXL or whatever blows up in your face I guess it doesn't matter what you're wearing...

About to leave for downtown, most of my friends are still in the restaurant business and thus still working.
Probably be drunk quite quickly and hope it stay with booze this time, chances are I'm back soon.
Well, happy new-year y'all

It's about ten minutes to midnight here.
My wife passed out an hour ago after we shared a bottle of port and then a bottle of red wine.
I'm just about fighting drunk so I had better stay indoors.
Happy New Year to everyone who posts on Apolyton.
