Before i log off and join the festivities, just wanted to wish you all, all the best for the new year.
Whatever you wish for yourself, I wish for you.
I've a bottle of 12 year old The Glenlivet for the bells, but for now i'm perfectly happy with a generously poured black russian and no work till the 4th.
Happy Hogmany

Whatever you wish for yourself, I wish for you.

What a nice sentiment. Happy New year... and my over-used wish:

Here's to a New Year of good food, good health and good friends.

Slainte- Cheers and good health- to you too, Bughut!

Happy Hogmany (New Year's Day) to you as well. May your year be full of culinary successes.

Happy New Year, Bughut.
Hope your Hogmanay was great. Mine was...!

Mezzaluna: traditionally, we do not wish people 'Happy Hogmanay' because Hogmanay is New Year's Eve! Also, in Scotland we tend not to wish people 'Happy New Year' ahead of the day - we normally say 'A guid wan, when it comes' (a bit superstitious, I suspect!)

Thank you for the information, Ishbel. I'll try to remember that.

That's OK, Mezzaluna - best to get the terminology right, eh?!!!!
