Happy New Year 2008!



What did everyone do on New Years Eve? We first took the bus to Muswell Hill and spent a couple hours at Ed & Veronica Zondell Sirett's house for some mulled wine and eats and good conversation, then Ed (Shirk) and our friend Ian took the tube to Central London (after dropping party pooper Phyllis at the Centre)to view the grand fireworks to be shot off at the London Eye. So they got a good place to stand amongst the estimated 700,000 others along the Thames. However, about one minute after the start of the fantastic show which by the way Phyllis was able to see from many different angles on TV, the smoke from the fireworks blew over to where Ed & Ian were and they were unable to see anything after that. The other LMC group were across the river and had a good view and were really glad that they did this, even if it meant for some of them, standing in one place for six hours to ensure a good spot. So these are the only good shots Ed got off on his camera. Tube and bus fares were free from 10pm until like 4am. A good thing with all the partying going on.
I don't think I have any ground breaking resolutions to reveal just yet.

Ed; Don't let the smoke get in your eyes! Well, the two pics were good anyway. Glo & I celebrated New Year's Eve at Barry's along with Brad/Brenda, John/Amy & Sam and Ben. Had a good time but decided that the ball dropping in Times Square was good enough for us and were home in bed before the New Year hit CST.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
