It's just another day so no big deal! Had planned to be in southern Spain but maybe next year? 
or the next? or.......
A good job you didn't ask about the day before because we would be at a family funeral!
But will be parked up on a friends horse field where we've been since start of second lockdown for New Years Eve.
I think we'll have to move about some after that!
Last New Years Eve we were watching the fireworks in front of the twin towers in Kuala Lumpur, so quite a contrast!

Think I’ve only been home in this country twice in over 30 years. We always try to go somewhere warm maybe Mexico Florida somewhere hot re charge the batteries. This year I’m looking forward to doing nowt. Didn't relies how much I was spending on these exotic jaunts its one of the most expensive times to go abroad and the older you get the hotels become more expensive. Gonna go into the new year with some extra shekels in my pocket.

Same here as usual. Never been one for going berserk like the majority of the population on New Year’s Eve. May have something to do with my late wife having to work in the hospital on news years day and neither of us were drinkers.
May head out to the lakes if my area comes out of tier 3 next week but I reckon that’s unlikely.
ive already spoken to the CS site I use near Penrith which is closed but they have kindly let me stay if I can leave my area.

not only coal mjvw.....it was coal, for warmth
silver coin for prosperity
piece of bread for food
a small glass of wine/drink
first footer had to be a male with dark hair....
could only come in via front door could not enter till after midnight.
after leaving gifts he had to exit via back door
i doubt the young ones would know what first footing is/was.........
