There's no one living- or partying- at the big house at the moment- so no fireworks were let off in my vicinity- and for the first time in decades I slept through the turning of the year.
Last year's resolution was to watch more movies and drink more wine. I sort of kept it, though my enthusiasm for the movies tailed off after a few months; I've seen all the old movies- and the new movies are just like the old movies only gaudier and worse. The wine is delivered in boxes from a well-known wine merchant's and I open a bottle every now and then. Towards the end of the year I developed- or redeveloped- a taste for drinking beer in pubs. I like the beer to be locally brewed and the pubs to be 15th century.
I haven't made any resolutions for this coming year.
