The New Year celebrations 🍸 🍺 and 🎶 thread

[WeeGord]

Afternoon all, hope you're all enjoying the New Year festivities. First and foremost, I'd like to wish you all a great night and best wishes for 2024. I believe we're all a family on here, we celebrate together, we argue and fall out at times, we disagree with each other but when we need to, we all come together. That is something this board brings and it's priceless. No matter where in the world we are, we come together for each other. I shall raise a glass to the board later on, that's for sure. Let's also amidst the celebrations remember those no longer with us, both from this board and beyond.

Anyhow, onto footballing matters and a very hard earned 3 points at Huddersfield has put us back in the tightly congested area around the play offs. Amazing considering the horrendous injuries we have, and the absentees will be felt when the Aussies and Seny Dieng head off for international duty. Massive game against Coventry tomorrow, we owe them one and hopefully we can start the year with a bang and get 3 points.

As for beer, I did tuck into some Belhaven Black the other night which I find is a lovely drink and makes a change from Guinness. If you've not tried it before and you like dark beers it's well worth a try.



Finally, it wouldn't be New Year if we didn't start with a little Auld Lang Syne so here you go and best wishes one and all for 2024

Well said WeeGord. A fabulous 2024 to you and yours. Happy New Year FMTTMers. Thought I'd see in the brave new dawn with a guaranteed hangover.
As for music, my favourite track of this year.

Apologies. Mistakenly added Jacques Brel to Christmas thread. Hopefully my last mistake of 2023.

A small snifter of 16 yr old Lagavulin Islay malt later this evening. Have to be a good boy today, driving to Boro tomorrow.
Hope you all have a very good night, and don’t lose your voices for the match.

Afternoon all. We'll be having a bit of Punk IPA later and looking back on this year's best gigs.
My choice would be Johnny Marr at the Empire.

Going to my dad's just now and he's got his old favourite John Smith's Smooth in the fridge for the both of us. We will raise a glass to my mum and will also be thinking of Slipperutb01 and his family.

As I mentioned in the New Year Thread, the wife and I are having a meal at home and I will be opening a nice Saint-Emillion Red.

We've been out for hours now and Nobby still hasn't got a round in. I knew this was a bad idea.

Evening all. Quiet night tonight, was out with a big group of friends in Durham yesterday and then night, apparently I was ‘swaying’ by the end

My usual Sauvignon (The Ned) is putting me right

Music wise a few hours early and not so trendy, but still a decent tune IMHO.

Oops, just looked upthread, sorry redcarbob. Here’s a different ‘new year’ song
