It's Hogmanay!

By the time you read this, I'll be partying. At least I hope the Sudafed and Nurofen will have kicked in by then. I have a nice bottle of Elderflower Fizz for the Bells cos I'm driving.

Hogmanay is fantastic, but it's not the same without the Rev I M Jolly. Rikki Fulton's dour Church of Scotland Minister giving his reflections just ahead of the Bells was a feature of our ritual for most of my early life. He was a very funny man and this clip is from 1986. Enjoy!

    Hi Caron,

    Happy New Year.

    Is it just me or has the quality of the New Year offerings on TV declined substantially over the past few years?

    Regards,

Thanks for your comment. As long as it doesn't libel anyone, and isn't abusive, I'll publish it. I try to respond to as many as I can, but please forgive me if I don't. Sometimes there are just not enough hours in the day. I read and appreciate every one, even those specifically aimed at winding me up.
