Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat-RoundTheWorld-NewYear From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 30 Dec 09 - 07:24 AM I'll be home as I don't go out. My suburb is Sydney's entertainment quarter & is almost impossible to return to on NYE. Sydney New Year's Eve 09 official website Gallery of photos from 1997 NYE - 2008 NYE For the last few years I've gone outside for the 9pm fireworks over Sydney Harbour - or what I can see of them over the tops of the intervening building! If I can get down the street that leads to the Harbour & one of the vantage points - Embarkation Park I can see a bit more over the tops of zillions of heads & cameras! Embarkation Park is one of the places I go when I take my evening walk Night view of City skyline & Harbour Bridge from Potts Point sandra |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat-RoundTheWorld-NewYear From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 29 Dec 09 - 02:26 PM I think it's a great idea; I'll be at the Nelson Town Hall from 7 pm Mudcat Time until the party poops out (or midnight, whichever comes first!) but will check in and even make a phone call or few during breaks in the action (DH and I are playing for half the contra dance that night). |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat-RoundTheWorld-NewYear From: Little Hawk Date: 29 Dec 09 - 02:20 PM I'm not gonna do it, Spaw, unless you read Mary Lee Foote's essay on the real meaning of the song "I Started a Joke". Look it up on Google: Mary Lee Foote + "I Started a Joke" After which, of course, I will expect your reaction to it. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat-RoundTheWorld-NewYear From: Little Robyn Date: 29 Dec 09 - 02:16 PM We're going to be out playing music and feasting until about 1:30am and when we get home we usually crash until the next day. Maybe if it's still going then.... But I intend to sing the Peace Round as soon after midnight as I can and maybe if I sing it every hour, on the hour, I'll link up with some of you. Robyn in NZ |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat-RoundTheWorld-NewYear From: Janie Date: 29 Dec 09 - 11:50 AM This sounds like fun! Somebody pm me with a phone number and I will surely give a call. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat-RoundTheWorld-NewYear From: quokka Date: 29 Dec 09 - 10:59 AM Great idea...maybe I'll call my secret Santa to personally thank....oh wait - is it still a secret?? I have some time anyway to think about it... |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat-RoundTheWorld-NewYear From: katlaughing Date: 29 Dec 09 - 10:56 AM I'm not staying up that late I don't think, however I WILL play as long as I am awake. Great fun will be had, I am sure. I'd forgotten about the calling, too! Thanks, Spawdarlin'! |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat-RoundTheWorld-NewYear From: SINSULL Date: 29 Dec 09 - 08:56 AM Poor Micca. We traditionally call him at midnight Mudcat time to wish him a happy new year. LOL |
Subject: BS: Mudcat-RoundTheWorld-NewYear From: catspaw49 Date: 29 Dec 09 - 08:53 AM We haven't done anything that's just plain silly/stupid in a long while..........at least collectively. I think we're overdue! How about this? If you were here back at Y2K we did a New Year's thread thing that started in New Zealand and as the New Year came in "around the world" others came on and made a link to celebrations. Of course this year is just another year and not a "special" one so there are no killer celebrations but this could still be fun.........or at least mildly amusing............... Let's try it. I'll start a new thread just prior to New Zealand's New Year and we'll go from there. Post about your New Year either in your family, local community, or nation.........Something that gives us a bit of "local" flavor. Something like, "We all begin every New Year by shooting bottle rockets out of Grandma's ass,"........ or whatever. Let's also add an optional part-----"CALL A 'CATTER" Find a number and call another 'Catter, perhaps one you don't know well.........or one you do. Tell us about that too if you like. PM for an okay and a phone number but shoot for an actual voice conversation. If you are really uncomfortable with this, we will all understand and its okay. Send someone a PM instead. I think that made the Y2K year a lot of added fun because there was a lot of calling going on. Watch for the new thread. Spaw |
