Old Years. Party night, what you are drinking and eating

General


Thats what we call New Years Eve. its a party night all over the world. My partying days are over. Home in my pajamas hanging out with the family and playing chess, eating healthy food. Had 5 Stella Artois. Going to switch to a premium rum soon, probably Eldorado 21 Yr old. In my young days ... cant tell you. How things change as you age. Life is still good.

At issue is the coronavirus and how the partying scene has changed for most intelligent people. It's more a stay at home affair now, Zooming with the same folks you used to party with.

Eh, I'm at work until 7am here, pulling another 12, so at least I don't have to worry about it. I can drink tomorrow night, and watch replays of the fireworks.

Hey my man, you sound like you have a handle on it and are doing real good. Happy new year.
5 Stellas is pretty good for a toned down guy. Enjoy.

Of course. Police here are also on the lookout for big groups of limers [party people]. Most big cities toned down the fireworks and barred crowds from coming into the city.

Happy New Year. Thats because my wife only had 2 gin and tonics. If my drinking buddies were here it would be more. I follow the bible;s advice on these things... work hard, eat well [without being gluttonous], have a drink of alcohol [avoiding drunkenness], be generous to the poor, treat people well.

How about you? How was your New Years Eve?

I remember in university with my buddies, we often wondered what life would be when we cross 50. It was a scary thought at that time, but it turned out well. Its nice to be retired with less cares and responsibilities.

Someone in our area got fireworks from somewhere and were shooting them off last night. People will always find a way.

I believe there were firework displays in many different countries.

Correct. Same here. Police are trying to control it but at 12.03 this morning the night sky was lit up and the noise was deafening. Our police here are not too efficient.

You look at the amount of Police and the population, that gives you your answer!
