Happy New Year everyone :-) <3

Greetings to Vera and LaGooner and thank you for your messages. :-D

I hope it's a good year for you all.

I stayed up, at home to see in the New Year and heard the fireworks at 11.55 , midnight and then a long burst about 12.40 :-S
I don't know which clock they were going by?
Looked out to see a very clear night, bright with stars and a heavy frost.
Not a soul in sight.

For many years, I would walk to the coast on New Year's morning to see the sun rise on another year, as I looked across to France. I didn't wake up in time to do that, this year.
Maybe that glass of Baileys had something to do with that ;-)

Happy New Year everyone :-) <3

Very cold start to the day. Computer says that round here it will be 4 degrees but feeling like minus 6 :-0

I didn't stay up last night. Was tucked up nice and warm well before midnight but there were plenty of local fireworks to make sure I didn't sleep until after then. I then slept in this morning - not much change there then ;-)

Enjoy whatever you are doing today.

Afternoon everyone. :-D <3

I stayed up to see in the new year so I nibbled my way through a few hours.

I was up just before 6 and started the day off with a hearty breakfast before getting ready to face the world, however, because I was not going out today I just donned a clean pair of jammies.

To Belle, LaG, Gwyn, Mr M, Von, Maddie and Kath - I hope 2026 is a happy and contented year for you and for everyone who looks in today. :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

It is quite mild and bright here.

Stay safe and warm everyone.
