How did you react



How did you react when the clocks hit midnight and a new year began? Partied? Raised a toast? Hugged a loved one?
Kissed, cocktails, played a couple of Pogues tunes, strummed along to Fairy tale of New York A Tony Bennett song, the banana boat song by Harry Belefonte. Love like blood by Killing Joke.

Mam danced (I have a big bay window onto a residential street).

Listened to Ave Maria by Maria Callas, balled my eyes out went to bed.

Was simultaneously watching Jools Holland on iPlayer, and Connor McGregor’s grand announcement on my phone.

Looked at the time and realised that it’d already turned midnight while I was engrossed in McGregors drunken, coked up gobshitery. Fortunately, due to the one minute time delay on iPlayer I got a second chance at life, and as soon as they finished the countdown, I promptly turned it off and ignored a load of HNY messages.
 
Bot all. Everyone was in bed and I just woke up briefly when the fireworks went off and went downstairs for a sandwich.
Fresh as a daisy today like, got the beers on the go watching the Mags.
