Happy New Year

Happy New Year guys! We had a pretty good Hogmanay. We spent the day in the city then headed up to the Harbour Brodge between six and seven to try and get a space to see in the new year. It was already getting pretty busy by that point but we managed to get a good space on some rocks in the park next to the bridge. We sat there to watch the family fireworks at nine o'clock and were still there for midnight to see the main display. It was fantastic! It was even better than being at the steeple.

After we'd seen in the new year there we headed back towards the city centre but ended up spending hours in the streets by the bridge as all the pubs there were letting their customers drink in the streets outside and had big sound systems in the street playing music, so we just joined in there. We got talking to a few different groups of people, mostly Scottish and Irish as it turned out.

New Year's Day was ridiculously hot, somewhere around 44 degrees so I just stayed in all day. Swag and Mac went out for a bit but returned, telling me about how they could feel the wind burning their eyes. Probably a bit different to the weather back home eh?

One other thing. The Hoff starts his world tour over here next month so we might try and score ourselves some tickets to see him live. That'd be genius.
