2011, Welcome to New Years day.

So, had a bit of a lie in this morning and feel strangely tired. Don't understand, was only out until about 2.30am yesterday/today.

We had to go to the Royal Castle Hotel (RCH) New Year bash because they had gone to a lot of trouble and it would have been rude to refuse!

Lots of fancy dress about, as usual. Most of our chums went on a loose theme of Witches. So Val went as a green witch with an angry clockface around her neck (Greenwitch Mean Time!) and I went as The Wichita Lineman (Iknow, I know...) and we looked great. Some of our chums didn't bother dressing up at all!  See below:

Everyone had a jolly good time and hardly anyone got arrested. Good fireworks from the RCH roof at midnight as per norm and then an added treat this year. 
The higher ferry decided to put on a great display from the ferry itself moored in the centre of the river and these took off around 12.15am
Great display and just warm enough to stay outside going ooh & aah.


battery ran out in my camera then so to see pictures try our Facebook page.


Here are some more photies:
