NYE 2010

I never do anything on New Years Eve.  I always find it a waste of time.  Blame millennium night for that one.


Most NYE nights have been me sitting indoors with the Manc and drinking my special coffee's till midnight, going up to the roof and watching the fireworks and then off to bed shortly after.  It is another day after all.


This year was no exception.  The plan was the same, this time with my Aussie mate Indiana Jones.  Not his real name mind.


We get the food and drinks in to settle in for the night.  My friend T-dog has just moved into the neighbourhood recently so I decide to give her a call and see what she is up to.


She wants to meet up and go dancing.  All of which I and the others hate doing on NYE.  We agree to go for a nice dinner in the local Thai restaurant, which is fabulous.  Nothing like a good Green Curry with prawns and some fab corn cakes.  We part ways and T-Dog goes off to boogie in Chiswick while we go back to my flat for some more drinks, fireworks and who knows what else.


Midnight comes and we head to the roof.  The New Year is a ablaze with colour and light, sparkling like diamonds.  Pretty little Chinese lanterns dot the night sky as they float around the fireworks.


As much as I love fireworks, there is only so much you can see from my roof, so we head back below to the flat and get some music on.  Manc is not feeling well so departs at about 1am.  Indiana and me stay up, searching for music on Spotify, chatting about old times and asking why ever listened to so much crap when we were young.


Nickelback – How You Remind Me - LP Mix  This is for you Indie.


I finally gave up at about 4am.  I am getting too old for this shit.


1.1.11  Happy New Years day all.
