morning all, I went to bed just before midnight, Minnie [ dog] was spooked by all the fireworks she was shaking and needed to be cuddled.
When I first moved back here from Dubai some 20 years ago we did first footing[I come from Geordie stock] and neighbours would be at their doors banging saucepans and shouting "happy new year" across the street to each other, nowadays with our multicultural society nothing like that occurs anymore, how times have changed, sad really, what ever happened to community spirit, when did it die a death ?
