    Out for dinner with my OH for our first wedding anniversary and then off to a mates gaff to ring in the new year.
    No pub or club on New Years for 5 years now and can't see it changing any year soon

    Am really fed up coz none of my closest friends will be about to go anywhere. Was hoping to get to a party or something but probably just sit in with my parents and aunt. Boring af.

    Us lonelies should get together and have our own party! :pac:

    First time I've looked forward to NYE in a while. Normally I cave in to peer pressure and go to some sh!tty party and get way too drunk. This year, I'm just going to a comedy gig with the girlfriend. Will relax, have a glass of wine, and head home straight afterwards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54 ✭✭PsychoSue


    Usually would be movie, munchies and a few glasses of vino but with the amount of alcohol I've consumed in the last 2 days I don't think I could deal with another drink... So it will most likely be junk food and a crap movie.
    Wouldn't mind but it's the first time in 5 years that we've been invited to a NYE party and we don't want to go..... Feel like an old fart lol

    Gonna walk into town naked. Might go see a film or something. When Harry Met Sally maybe.

    Usually finish up around Christchurch drunk.

    Merry New Year everyone!

    I am staying in the with boyfriend and making a big fancy dinner! Might get some champagne too. We might go out later on in the night, probably not though. I hate big crowds in pubs. I have awful memories of working in pubs in Killarney on New Years, busiest night of the year easily.

    Also don't really understand when people say New Years is a "let down". What do they expect?!

    Indian takeaway and nice bottle of pinot noir.

    Not a fan of New Year's Eve, packed pubs and clubs just don't appeal to me anymore.

    I remember celebrating the millennium. Now that was a let down. I was the rip old age of 18. I spent the day looking for silver sparkly eyeshadow to wear with my silver sparkly skirt.
    Myself and some friends went to the local night club full of mad excitement. The place was empty apart from a a few desperadoes (ourselves included) and discarded plastic glasses of bucks fizz.

    Ah memories :)

    Taking the train to Rome in the morning. It's only an hour away from where I live now but not been yet. We've no plan as such but we've got all the ingredients we need for a wild few days.... It's gonna be my bday 2 :) I tend to go for it on New Years!

    90% of posters here are staying in it seems. Does anyone actually go out anymore on NYE? It mightn't be a bad night out actually if so many are staying in?

    In bed. Alone. Smeared in Lindt chocolate with pepperoni slices stuck in my birds nest hair.

    All the people going out tomorrow are probably out tonight so can't post on Boards :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,397 ✭✭✭✭cena


    Well not be going out. Have ice hockey training the day after


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,960 ✭✭✭✭JupiterKid


    Staying in - taking it easy. A nice dinner followed by TV and Jools Holland's Hootenannay to ring in 2016 and watch the amazing fireworks going off in London on TV.

    That'll be my New Years. Happy New Year AHers!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 64 ✭✭techyjon


    I usually travel home to spend it with my parents. New year resolution is to have exciting plans next year!

    The other half and myself will be feeling miserable downing benilyn for flu and lemsip on the couch together watching Making A Murderer and eating take out Pizza.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Working as I have done all Christmas.....

    Tourists I love you so much!




  • No plans but usually the gathering of family and friends.

    My wife will open the back door and front door, let the old out and the new in which i think is really nice.

    Make sure you all texts or phone whoever, happy new year to you all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 941 ✭✭✭Ciderswigger


    I hate New Years. Always have. I'll be happy to see the back of this year though. I'll spend it at home, alone, finishing off a selection box and wallowing in self pity.:cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,059 ✭✭✭✭osarusan


    Home, probably asleep as I've a pretty bad cold.

    If not asleep, I'll wake up my kids for the countdown and then put them back to bed.

    In the morning, they'll remember nothing about any of it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    No big plans at all

    Just going to resurrect the Y2K bug and bring the civilised world to its knees.

    MUUWWWAAAHHHAAAAAAAAA!!!!!






    Oh and watch the Hootenanny. I never miss that!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,217 ✭✭✭Samsgirl


    My 'baby' turns 3 tomorrow so I will be frazzled after a house full of under 5's for her birthday party. Will probably be asleep by 9pm!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,750 ✭✭✭iDave


    Going to Galway to see my brother if it still stands after the storm.

    Never usually get worked up about NYE. The beginning of January doesn't feel worth celebrating.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,252 ✭✭✭FTA69


    Jools Holland can go and whistle.

    I'm going to Barnsley in Yorkshire. Nearly a decade living in England and I've never been "up north". My buddy and his wife are tattooist bikers and every year they have the mother of all parties which attracts hundreds of people but all messers are kept away by a squad of angry patched gentlemen. I can't fupping wait.
