Happy New Year to everyone.
Hubby and me normally prefer to stay at home on the 31st but we were co erced into going to a “Hobo Party” and were glad we did in the end as it was a lot of fun.
The best part was dressing down and not up for a change!
It was a traditional South African “braai” at some good friends of ours who we have known for 23 years . It was good music, good entertainment, good food and drink so we had no complaints. The heavens opened up at about 11pm so there was no chance of fireworks at 12 as the thunder and lightening was too loud.
I was secretly kind of glad though, because pets always get so traumatised with fireworks, which are actually banned in most residential areas in SA.
We got home at 1.30am but driving on the roads wasn’t much fun contending with the rain and drunken drivers…
