I edit a small newsletter and wanted to write across the top "Happy New Year" in Irish. And by the way, Happy New Year to all my fellow Mudcatters from whom I have learned all kinds of interesting things and enjoyed immensely! |

The really witty ones amongst us can of course, make up their own original toasts. Maybe we'll even see some of them here yet!(BG) |
