It's 6pm on New Year's eve & I'm battened down. I popped into the supermarket earlier as I'd run out of eggs & a few other things - $51 later I leave. Lotsa' folk were buying ice & other stuff to bring in the New Year - I'm sure the sellers of alcohol were also busy!

My neighbour works in suburbia (we live near the harbour) & reported trains into the city were packed, everyone is heading to a good spot in our little piece of paradise to watch the 9pm & midnight fireworks, & rain is expected!

But we are in our apartments, I'll be working on the archives of Australia's oldest folk club which turns 70 in October & will of course hear both sets of fireworks & the roar of the crowd(s) & will be sipping on my favourite drink, vanilla malted milk & might even have a buttered crumpet!

Happy New Year!

referring to the topic of this thread - as I've pulled out lotsa' archives & piled them around the scanner, I have to step carefully!
