    Just back from the Dartford panto. Now in the process of blocking the outside world out. Absolutely hate NYE, the most pointless overrated night of the year. Have never liked the night and when I did go out I made a point of being away from the pub/club or whatever before midnight as the faux "happy new year, i am your best mate" bollocks from all and sundry made me nauseus.
  • Just returned from taken the little 'un for a mocktail and a pizza at a nearby hotel. Sitter coming at 7 and off to friends for wine and takeaway curry. Home by 12.15am.
  • No one doing the Bon Bonnie reunion tonight at The Lounge in Chislehurst?
  • Cheers folks. Hopeful that we've worked everything out. Only about four weeks away from the divorce being finalised, so we were cutting it a bit fine. Otherwise, I'd have had to shell out for another wedding!
  • Working till 00:30. Fire strike, so we needed someone to man the site till it's over. I said id do it even though it's my 22nd birthday! I absolutely hate NYE! Not too bothered about my bday either haha

    Mum was the first person I ever spoke to at New Year and last year was the first year she was not there. Hit me so hard not being able to hear her voice, more so than any other event since her death.

    Tonight has changed forever for me since last year - find it so difficult.

    Absolutely bang on mate. Load of pretentious clap trap!

    Know exactly where you are coming from @WSS , sadly it comes to us all as we and our parents get older. Try and cherish the memories and do what I do at the stroke of midnight raise a glass to current as well as absent family and friends, gone but never forgotten. All the best for the New Year.

    About to start my second set of covers in a Clapham restaurant/bar. Come the third I'm gonna have to remember the 'proper' lyrics to Mull Of Kintyre. Extremely difficult for an Addick.

    Happy new year all.

    Was supposed to be down in Dorset with my sister's family, but have been in bed with the lurgy all day, so have been watching Dara O'Briain and now Jools Holland instead.

    Hi
    The Victorians said you should mourn for a year and a day.
    It's the most comforting and sensible advice I had when I was in your position.
    It covers all anniversaries and feels right.
    Hope this helps mate

    Thoughts are with you, wish you all the best for 2014, time is a great healer but it takes some people longer than others, no 2 people grieve the same way or for the same amount of time, things will feel better eventually. All the best to you and your family xx

  • Generally can't be bothered any more but the party on Karon Beach was good fun last night. Loads of fireworks and a big electronic music festival. Not usually my scene but there was a crowd of all ages, not serious clubbers at all. Quite nice paddling in the sea all the way there, thinking of the weather back in the UK. My 8 year old enjoyed the foam party area, as did one of the local stray dogs! And all free!
  • How many people were making 10 woody from toystory cup cakes for some dolls and a unicorn at 7am though

    Take that for knowing how to party eh that's hardcore rock and roll kids
