Happy New Year All!!

Gawd, Berrie. 7:14 [awe]

Ooooohhhhhhhhhh my head.

5 hours of "Heroes" and 6 bottles of cider.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Pass the paracetamol.

Happy New Year to one and all.

Aaaaaarrrrrgggggghhhhhhhh. Ooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Happy New Year!!!!
I'm not hungover despite DP and I getting through two and a bit bottles of wine between us.
One of my new year resolutions will be to drink less.
Another will be to get more sleep.

I've got the worst indegestion though...2 bottles of fizz and a large tin of chocolate biscuits...

Still feel blimmin' awful...

Are we any better today?

So those in the local know, what do you imagine we'll do? When will we meet? What sort of place will we go to? How much walking will we do between theatre, hotel, anywhere else? (shoe reasons)

Well there are lots of bars and restaurants within about a 10 minute walk of the theatre and hotel. If we want to be really posh we'll go the the American Bar at the Savoy but we'll need to remortgage our houses to afford the drinks.
What time are you arriving in London Berrie? Maybe we should meet in a bar before the show.
That reminds me, i still haven't got any childcare arranged...

I get in around lunch time as I'd like to do a bit of child-free sightseeing.I think Oggs said she landed around lunchtime too.
Don't fancy going anywhere where I might be ashamed of my country rags!

What sort of time do you think we should meet then? I probably won't be able to get into town till about 6 at the earliest, depending on what childcare I can arrange.

Well. I suppose it will depend on when everyone gets there. I don't mind when we meet, like I say, I'll be there all afternoon. I expect I'll want to get changed before we go out as I'll have been tramping round all afternoon....mmm that means extra luggage to carry round though.

I expect I'll be having to dash into town as usual and will arrive all hot a flustered

We'll let you off!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

Thank God. Back at work for a rest. So please spill on all the gossip I've missed. Did we all get what we deserved in our Christmas stockings, and did our respective ankle biters remain sleeping until a respectable hour on Christmas morning?

Obviously I didn't miss my Christmas viewing - Joseph vs Maria was top notch. But the winner's story thing with Lee just reinforced the view that he should stick to singing, acting and looking pretty (which he does extremely well ).

Hey Zeb is baaaaack!

Mine stayed asleep until 6 ish which I was thankful for.
I didn't get all that I deserve, did you?

Oh yes! Be afraid. Be very afraid.

My darling DH gave me a jar of creme de la mer and their eye stuff! OK, only small jars, but big enough. I bet he asked his secretary what he should get as there's no way he'd come up with that all on his little own. Did I deserve it? Well it's spades better than his usual presents, so I say thanks to the seccy! Oh, and some perfume I haven't yet decided if I like or not, so no change there then. He NEVER gets that right.

So when we meet up, I'll be the one with amazing skin looking about 12 and stinking of some 'orrible posh perfume

What, pray, is creme de la mer? Sea cream??

I got some day and night cream too (not as posh as Zebs) but I can't be arsed to put it on so I really will be a wrinkled old crone! Oggs, hope you are as frightened of meeting these sophisticates as me

Sophisticated?! Moi?!

Yes you with your country pile (albeit with no floor) and apartment in the city and Creme de la mare on your chops!

You do know it's all a front, don't you? I really live in a grim bedsit with only a single bar heater for warmth, and the only moisturiser I use is the dripping off my Sunday roast. I keep DS warm by sticking a layer of newspaper and dripping under his t-shirts.

And I've only heard of Creme do wotsit cos I nick my mate's Hello magazine when she's not looking.

Lawks and lummox, I do be hoping I won't be embarrassing you all with my unsophisticated, bumpkin ways
