A Quacking New Year


This year the boy and I continued what is fast becoming a new year’s tradition: dinner followed by getting drunk with Jools Holland. Life in the fast lane...

I don’t actively hate new years, in fact I always have the best intentions to go out, do something wild, even just leave the house. Alas I’m often too busy getting excited about Christmas that I tend to forget about new years until about 2 days before, when I frantically think of all the things that I could possibly do before settling for dinner followed by getting drunk with Jools Holland. My lack of planning often finds me running between supermarkets trying to gather last minute ingredients, nightmare. Anyway this year proved to be no different; ‘What shall we do for new years? London? Edinburgh? South Africa?’ See such good aspirations.

Anyway we got to eat lots of extravagant food, drink sloe gin and champagne (dangerous) and discover Pokey Lefarge and the South City Three (amazzzzing).

Hope you all had a luverly new year x
