enjoy,Fatman! The wife and I will be spending the evening with the 6 month old grandson, so it should be eventful.....in some sort of way. We'll probably declare Midnight at something like 10 pm and turn in, exhausted. I do have an interesting bottle of champagne chilling. More on that after we crack it open.

Enjoy, all.
I'll be spending the evening with a 3 month old girl I consider my daughter (unfortunately not biologically), she has stomach flu so "eventful" it will be...

Good time had by all......Grandchild back home, Grandparents exhausted. Oh, the Champagne story: My dad was cleaning stuff out of the old house before they sell it(living in a retirement community now) and came across a bottle of champagne that had been forgotten. It was a Piper-Heidieseck Extra Dry, Vintage 1961. Yup, 50 year old sparkling wine. Probably no good, but once in a while, these can survive. I ask the experts at some Wine website what I have, and if it is worth anything before we open it. Their reply was that it couldn't be sold, as no one buys champagne without being able to sample the lot beforehand. However, I was told, if it was still good, the bottle was worth around $10-17,000, as 1961 is considered the best year for the stuff in the last hundred. Thus, the wife and I waited with anticipation, pulled the cork and 'pfffft'....nothing in the way of fizz. Oh, well, we did have a perfectly good 2003 Spanish methode champagnoise so bubbly was consumed. That's as close as I'll get to a massively expensive wine, I figure, and what I had approached a mix of vinegar and yeast.......


Happy New Years to all! :D

We did the same thing Slick, we had both our grandchildren. (one 5yr. old and one 5 month old)
But I cheated.....(just a little)
....I turned the clocks ahead 2 hours, so we ended up being not so tired and actually still awake to see the New Year in (2 hours early)..... :lol:

All the best in the New Year to you all! :)
