    Default Hogmanay Plans

    So, fellow honorable gentlemen of the Org, what have you planned to welcome the forthcoming year of 2006 A.D.?

    I have to spend the night entertaining a mighty plethora of my cousins, and shan't be able to have any cognac or whisky...

    Going to get quietly drunk with some friends I suspect. Mope around a bit and stuff too. Oh, and I suspect I'll be rather cold and/or ill.
    Don't have any aspirations - they're doomed to fail.

    Using up the rest of the booze that is left over from christmas...which is alot...then I'll probably spend the rest of the evening making fun of jools holland the crawl up to my bed where i will stay until about 5 o clock the following evening.
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb...

    Ugh, none of my family is coming up to here anymore, so it will be I and my friends in drunken revelry around the city of Dundee.

    I think we're just going to our friend's place down the street. I'm sure it will be very quiet. Probably spend most of the time just watching the kids run around.

    I partied in my mentally promiscuous youth. Now I get to relax.

    None at the moment. I'll stick at home for the evening with the family, and after midnight see if there're any parties going on.
