New Year's Eve

[Dquincy]

What are you doing for new year's eve?

And, what's your new year's resolution?

This is the first year we'll be staying at home and not socialising. Looking forward to being in bed by 11pm.

My new year's resolution is to stop swearing.

[Giggles]

For the past 3 years me and the Mrs have got a few drinks and a Dominos, and watched New Years rubbish on TV. Can't see that changing.

[Spammer]

First time in memory that I potentially have no plans at all. I'd be alright with that, but if I stay in I want the flat to myself.

[Byron]

I don't bother with New Year's so it'll be me, the wife and a Chinese Takeaway.

[Giggles]

I don't bother with New Year's so it'll be me, the wife and a Chinese Takeaway.

Actually I might break with tradition and go Chinese instead of pizza too. A munchy box would be the business.

[Dquincy]

The whole charging people to go in a pub is a load of bollocks.

Think we're getting steaks in. Last time i cooked a steak, I nailed it.

[Dquincy]

What's a munchy box?

[Kikó]

I'm in Scotland with the in-laws so will be going to a caleidgh (sp). My mates coming up as well for it so it should be a fun night.

[Giggles]

What's a munchy box?

A spice bag with some extra bits thrown in. All in a pizza box.

The contents vary from place to place.

[Magic]

Dreadful night planned. Will explain later when I'm less dead.

[Bam]

Paying a score out for me and the wife to go to a pub with our friends, fucking joke. I wouldn't mind but I bet its rammed three deep at the bar.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Ceilidh (still sp, but probs closer). My sister's having one of these at her wedding, as she's marrying a jock. The mind boggles.

[Mazuuurk]

Going to my parents for a more festive dinner and then just staying around there. Having a kid (and growing the fuck up realizing it's about the worst night out of the year most of the time) drastically changes your take on New Years Eve. Even if I wanted a good old sloshing, It would be impossible to find a babysitter as nobody doesn't have plans on NYE, which anyway I don't really want to.

[-james-]

Going out on New Year's Eve is pretty crap. Everything is busier, more expensive, and full of people who only go out once a year.

This (https://s28.postimg.org/ssmfcby3h/FB_IMG_1482833924785.jpg) picture of me trying to fight my way through the sea of plebs to get to my group for "the bells" last year always makes me laugh though.

[Giggles]

The pubs charging started here on the 99/00 one and started a new tradition where most people stay in or throw a party. Pubs (outside the cities/large towns) are generally deserted.

It's the new way of life now Jim. Embrace it.

Have a listen to my father in law http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0854x12 and become more Scottish.

Are your wife's lot not Portuguese or have you a couple or Mrs'?

New Years is genuinely the worst holiday of the year.

[igor_balis]

Ceilidh (still sp, but probs closer). My sister's having one of these at her wedding, as she's marrying a jock. The mind boggles.

The weird posh 31 year old English lady I was seeing in Edinburgh tried to get me to go to a beginners ceilidh night on our second date. The group even uploaded footage on their Facebook page. I politely told her I would give it a miss.

Nothing worse than spending the night waiting to get served.

[Lewis]

I actually wanted to do something (http://www.thethirdhalf.co.uk/showthread.php?762-The-New-Years-Thread&p=47116&viewfull=1#post47116) this year, but the options are crap, so I'll watch a film.

[Jimmy Floyd]

I'm well pumped for the Hootenanny.

[Lewis]

You, Phill Jupitus, and the BBC accounts department (who are all white).

[Jimmy Floyd]

The only non-white people involved are (the fabulous) Orrell J. Williams and the Boomer Guilt Band, and possibly an appearance for Reginald D. Hunter in the audience if he doesn't have anything else on.

[Smiffy]

I hope to be working but if not I'll see midnight by clicking 'Continue'.

The appeal of being swamped at a bar whilst paying extortionate prices to feel like shit for the three days that proceed went years ago.

[Pepe]

That's a surprise Pepe, you're normally so sociable and cheery.

Mostly that:


New Years is genuinely the worst holiday of the year.

I am not very sociable but I am very cheery, believe it or not.

[Pepe]

I haven't 'gone out' in a long while, at least six months I think. That will all change in January when I'm in Mexico. :drool:

The first one was in 1993, which sits it at a nice point between Tony Blair and a tired, backwards-looking Britain where Jools Holland was considered cool.

Cocaine and tequila :drool:

[Baz]

Let's say you were all, individually, going to a house party for New Year. You know all the guests so don't need to worry about mingling or copping off.

What would make it rubbish?
And what would make it good?

Like for me it'd be rubbish if Cards Against Humanity was brought out, or any drugs, or if the telly was on and everything was just watching that.
What would make it good with be good music, lots of drinks available for everyone to drink even if they didn't bring it. Ice cubes are a must, or at least ice cold mixers/beers. And my cat being sociable rather than hiding upstairs.

I'm supposed to be going out but I'm not sure I can be arsed. I went out last night and don't remember getting home and now I feel like shit.

Any babes going?

[Raoul Duke]

We're going to a friend's flat for a few drinks and some food. It'll be a load of 30-somethings talking about the kinda stuff we talk about. Fine enough. There's a load of musicians so it tends to end up with a bunch of people playing music at some point.

Resolutions: learn to drive, as always...

[Baz]

Any babes going?Just me.

[Lewis]

A baby is coming to my party.

I went to a house-warming party once where some older couple brought their kids, and they just got fobbed off on us younger people whilst they went upstairs to do some cocaine. I ended up making light of the fact, the mother thought I was questioning her parenting (I wasn't, but...), started bealing, turned all of the older people against me, and then apologised with an invitation to watch her DJing. I'll give it a miss, love.

[Waffdon]

Because you're an absolute mong with drink so one can only imagine the plunge you'd take with harder stuff.

That's the only higher end one. :D

*awaits Adamski and Kiko to tell us it's a slightly better Travelodge*

Also they will be fucking rammed because they are the only decent areas. Though town is good these days some decent places.

[Kikó]

Might not even end up over the bridge just wanted a few options for after midnight. I'll try the travel lodge idea. Cheers magic.

[Waffdon]

There are a few good places but they'll be obliterated. Ferry will be a great laugh - a great mixture of folk. Get yasel to The Fort.

Magic - what's your go to pub again? Ship?

[Magic]

Yeah.

Wine Press in town is dece. Can only get decent stuff by the bottle.

[Magic]

Why don't you try going over the side?

[Waffdon]

Not a fan. Only been when doing the Ferry 17 or whatever it is.

[Pen]

We're staying in this year for the first time (I'm with Quincy ofc). Would've probably done something similar to Raoul without the music part, but people I usually spend my new year's eve with are all away and I didn't want to do anything big. The area we moved to is pretty swish and we have a dog to take care of for a week or so, so we'll probably end up doing a long walk during the day and then going to watch the fireworks by the seaside. Lot's of eating between those and maybe a movie to cap it all off.

I think I've been in a bar once during new year's eve. I doubt I'll do that again. House parties or a decent meal with few people are the best ways to go about it.

[ScousePig]

Bit of debate about what's happening here. My girlfriend's step dad owns a b&b estate so we went there Christmas Day, but her parents ended up doing most of the cooking. Her mum is working and just wants to chill out at home and tbh that would suit me better too, but we'll see. Either way it'll be more active than my regular NYE.

So what's the debate? Go or not go?

[ScousePig]

I think we were kind of expected to go but nobody really wants to. It might be off though because the son who runs the b&b has phoned and said he is shattered and has loads on, and no-one else is really going anyway.

[Magic]

So...great!?

[Dquincy]

Invite the son round yours. Got to do it, it's the right thing to do.

[ScousePig]

But then the other son is up from Oxford apparently (I thought he lived in Chester) and staying with us. I don't think the son will end up here, though it would be logical in many ways. I think the two sons and the first son's partner will end up together, either at the b&b or the pub.

[Adamski]

Rangers Celtic game today. Stupid day to have it.

We've no plans tonight because of the little one so I now have to go and only have a couple of pints to make sure I don't come home and pass out on the couch before midnight.

Self control required.

[Kikó]

My mate is flying into Glasgow airport today as well about the time it finishes. Great planning.

It's a bit of a joke having city go to Liverpool this evening as well, means you can't really have a new year's Eve.

[Adamski]

Yeah, odd. We have a winter shutdown from tomorrow which is fair enough, but surely the game could have been Monday.

[John]

Police apparently offered three alternative dates and times, all of which were accepted by the clubs but rejected by the league. It's a shambles.

I've had an epic Chinese. Definitely asleep before 12 after that.

We're staying in. We've got pizza, coleslaw, sweet potato chips, plenty of beer and snacks.

What could possibly go wrong?

[Magic]

SOPPY ALERT! 2016 what a year you have been �� bringing in 2017 slightly quieter than expected due to a certain someone breaking a few bones, however this doesn't change the way I feel about how great he has been this year �� can't wait for 2017. I have a good feeling ����⭐️

[Dquincy]

:D Wonder how he broke a few bones?

[Magic]

Happy new year from myself & X when it comes �� don't know where I would be without this guy especially the past year ❤️ roll on 2017!

[Offshore Toon]

Actually, I'm gonna time the gammon for midnight. It just feels right. Nibbling on Munchies now.

You nocturnal?

We're having steak tonight.
I've been ill the last few days, so sleeping pattern has been non-existent and I've just been catching an hour or two whenever I could. Its so shit. Today's sleep is the longest I've slept since Boxing Day night, so at least I got a decent night sleep. I feel good for it, so there's that. I wouldn't mind being nocturnal for a couple of weeks whilst I've got uni stuff to do. Best time to work.

[Magic]

2016 what a year! Almost got divorced, had the shitest working year I've ever had and spent a fucking fortune repairing a house I can't afford! Roll on 2017 xxx! <3

[Offshore Toon]

I was also pleasantly surprised to come back the other day and find most of the geeks weren't here, then this morning I heard the remaining 2 leave (they went to bed at 4am and woke up at 7am to leave). I started thinking about it on the way to Co-op, though, and I think it might be sadder to be in a flat alone, although with nobody around to annoy me, than at least have the occasional geek to awkwardly shuffle past me waving. I've noticed quite a few lights come on in the past hour, though, so I reckon kids are coming back tonight for NYE. It was absolutely dead last night, but starting to look like it could be much more lively tonight, which is annoying because its just going to rub it in that I can't get fucked.

[ScousePig]

Was it last year that Facebook had that 'what a year' thing on everyone's status with loads of people's dads dying and stuff?

Fuck you all tbh

Mine arrived, then I walked out without my keys. The ONE time nobody else is in the flat. Was funny, though, tbf. Had to walk to main reception on soaking wet ground and the security bloke was a right boring nonce, which made it funnier. 8/10, would forget keys again.

Can't even get in on the banter because the room I'm staying in the 11" TV doesn't work.

Happy new year.

[Chrissy]

Happy New Year folks

[Waffdon]

Magic get me home.

Glastonbury highlights on BBC2. The BBC are great at making Glastonbury look like a festival I'd absolutely hate.

[Boydy]

I haven't showered since last year.

[Giggles]

:D you gimp.

[Sam]

Spent it sober with the missus watching a few mates gear up, quality stuff, omen for the year ahead looking grand.

[Offshore Toon]

Despite waking up at 5:30pm yesterday, I fell asleep around 4am this morning and woke up this evening at 7pm. 2017 looks to be just as crazy as 2016!!!!

[igor_balis]

i don't feel so good

[Offshore Toon]

A kebab will sort you out.

I'd fucking love one. Ironically if I was still visiting the folks in the middle of nowhere I could get an epic one, but now I'm home (and within range of 57 JustEat establishments) I can't get one that isn't a miserable pitta held piece of shit with around 3 strips of meat.

[Offshore Toon]

Where are you? The best places normally aren't on Just Eat so Google 'best kebab <city> reddit' and there should be a thread discussing the best kebabs in the area.

Had a shish/kofte mixed kebab on Friday night :drool:

Not sure food will be much use today, though. I have a 3 hour memory blackout last night which is the entirety of time I was up on drugs. Much to my relief and disappointment, my lady friend informs me that I was just "even sweatier than usual and really fucking boring".

[Offshore Toon]

Sweating is so shit, but like all the shit things in life, you just have to learn to laugh at it. What did you do and how much to black out? I haven't had memory loss for a long time, which I put down to not really drinking much and just doing drugs instead. Its definitely much better and you don't feel anywhere near as bad.

MD, and I only had a single pill. I was a bit hungover from the night before so drank shit loads to get through it, and I'm pretty sure that's the main reason for the blackout, the drugs probably just tipped me over the edge.

And yeah, when I go out and do pills I try to limit my drinking to the absolute minimum, because you enjoy it more that way, act like less of a spaz and don't feel as shit the next day. Generally a small glass of wine at home, then maybe a jagerbomb or a single vodka lemonade or something once out.

And sweating is something I'm brilliant at. Walked briskly to work on my 2nd ever day at the bank, and my white shirt was practically transparent. You could see my hairy nips and everything. Might seriously look into some sort of medical intervention.

[Offshore Toon]

Summertime and thin office shirts do not mix well. I could just walk slower and it'd be alright, but my autopilot mode is set to walk as quickly as possible everywhere.

Also, you get one drink whilst out and its a jagerbomb? That seems a bit weird, especially if you're pilled up you'll want something to sip on.

[Sam]

Coke great for memory, no blackouts but the Great Depression the morning after.

[Jimmy Floyd]

My life has been transformed since I realised I could simply wear a thin black t-shirt underneath any shirt and instantly solve the sweating problem. I guess this is why vests exist, but they are deranged and dangerous things and for some reason don't have armpits.

[Offshore Toon]

Does your black t-shirt not take ages to dry out, though?

Not sure that'd cut it for me. On a FAIRLY warm day in April I wore a thin jacket to and from work, mainly because I knew it'd hide the sweat, and once I got home I realised I'd perspired so much it had gone through the shirt and into the jacket, the fucking thing was soaked. GROSS.

[Offshore Toon]

How long is your walk?

[igor_balis]

About half an hour in that particular job.

[Offshore Toon]

Could you not just get a bus if it was that bad?

Get pit rocks.

[Shindig]

I just wear something under the shirt. I mean, I walk in so the summer's always going to have that problem.

[Giggles]

Take the tshirt off when you get there.

[Manc]

Vaseline anti perspirant. Works like no other.

[Sam]

Generally sweat through it, even this winter I've easily sweat through two layers. Best is just all black in most occasions, any other colour shows the sweat off extremely. Beauty of summer, just wear vests.

I had a pretty good New Year's in Bristol. Party at a friend's, was a good one. One of those where I was just the right level of intoxicated and actually remember chatting to almost everyone. Top mates and top bants.

Girlfriend had been working on NYE, got out at 4am and her work lot went back to someone's. She was flying down to Bristol at 17:00, and stayed out until then. She rung me at about two and I'd written off her chances of making the flight, such was the state of her. She made it, but fell asleep on the plane and woke up on an empty plane with a paramedic holding a defibrilator leaning over her. Pretty lol.

We got a hotel and spent a couple of nights in Bristol. Really is a pretty good city. Everything points towards a move down here in the not too distant future.

[Raoul Duke]

Bristol is ace. One of my favourite cities in the UK

[Offshore Toon]

I always see incredible club nights in Bristol (there were a couple on NYE that were mad) and I've only heard good things when at Glastonbury, so I wouldn't mind living there at some point. Any of Brighton/Bristol/Manchester/Newcastle/Glasgow seem great.
