    So we are having a NYE's party - in the absence of a TV I am looking for suggestions for the countdown? Anyone know of something on line (streaming live) or live radio? If we had a TV we would use Jools Holland..

    Set the cooker timer based on your computer clock and yee haw Happpppy New Year.


    Alternatively just improvise. Who gives a toss if you celebrate on the stroke of midnight?

    Phone your ma and ask her to hold the phone up to the telly



    Times like these I worry about the future of the human race. How do these people even manage to tie their shoelaces ?

    No matter how accurate your time is, there will always be some other gimps close-by that will be about 5 minutes ahead.
