well i'm glad its all over really, another New Year where I have failed to make the Honour's List. really enjoyed Jools hollands Hootannay with lonnie donegan, travis and van morrison- best thing on telly all weekend the man should be given a knighthood. i think the queens inability to cross her arms during auld lang syne is the product of centuries of in breeding and she is physically unable to extend her arm sockets- either that or she was worried the bloke behind her was a pickpocket. Cherie Blair was giving it some welly though wasn't she, even if she didn't synchronise the words and the music or was that the Wembly effect. The best coverage I felt was from Stonehaven in Scotland where these masive kilted chaps were swirling huge bals of fire around in a procession - it was stunning.
