Watched the fire works with about 10000 people then wondered home . I was a good boy this year .  So what did everybody else get up to  ??? ???   :cheers:

Finished work at 7pm.  Quick steak and light beer at 8pm.  In bed by about 10pm.  Woke briefly at midnight and thought "Finally, that crappy year has finished".  Worst year of my life.  Back at work at 7am today.

In bed at 9.30pm (I feel old all of a sudden). Son woke me up at 1.15am as the guys out the back were playing music (not loud, but loud enough to hear from his room). No new years hanky panky for me!!. Anyway, had a nice day down by the lake with the family and bro in law and his new girl.

Set off some fireworks at midnight, then pumped the music up till 'round 2...then some inconsiderate started up a chainsaw & other noisy equipment early  >:(    :angel:


But in reality...Nº 2 son was working, so me & the minister went to his restaurant for tea, then came home & had a couple in peace till about 12:30.
Woken about 2:30 to Nº 1 son coming in a touch noisy, then about 15min later, walking out the door - must've been windy, cause the doors were banging  ::)  - then him & his mates talking loud till I yelled at 'em to SHUT-UP...then went back to a peaceful sllep :)

went to bed at 11.00 p.m, was woken at 11.45 p.m by drunken idiots swearing loudly outside my place on the street corner. walked outside and politely  ;) asked that they move on to elsewhere, i think they got the message but one guy wanted to fight me for some reason  ??? ;D ;D. went back to bed and was bombarded by text messages on my phone and the wifes phone at midnight. went back to sleep and was woken just after 1.00 a.m by a new years text message from my cousin, she must have been abit pissed judging by the fact she was an hour late (same state so no DLS time differance). had the Shits with being woken up again, so turned both phones off and went back to sleep, woke up around 8.30 a.m.

Had a few neighbors and friends over for a BBQ and swim in the pool.
We all stayed up till midnight for the first time in years.
Everyone was gone and we were in bed by 12:15 and up with the boys at 5:00am

The kids loved watching the firework over the bay at Stansbury, we then returned to camp, put the kids to bed and gave 2011 a rum send off.
