I've never really liked NYE, not at any age.
When I was very young it was just one more b***** noisy party of which my parents had many.
By the time I was out and about I just couldn't get into any enthusiasm about it. I did try the Trafalgar Square thing but as R O'R said, that was just expensive crap booze which you had to queue and wade through crowds for.
NYE Parties just aren't the streamer and party hat crazy episodes that various Sit Coms & TV shows over the years have tried to pretend.
I don't like being touched by people at the best of times and the sort of hugging and kissing that goes on during NYE is likely to get someone slapped.
I guess the fact that I never had any money and did everything on a budget didn't help.
For years I simply ignored the night beyond slouching down to the bar of whichever hotel I was staying in at the time.
#2 daughter doesn't give a crap either and #1 daughter, who very much does, goes out partying so that works.
>>We stayed up last night but only to make sure 2020 really had effed off.
That made me smile. I shall probably steal it and claim it as my own.
