Many happy turnovers, peas and good will to all our customers
Well it's that time of year again. That no-mans land of a week between Christmas and New Year. No sooner have we finished indulging, bulging and generally spoiling ourselves when suddenly another reason to be cheerful pops up on December's horizon.
I am referring of course to that hardy perennial, New Year's Eve.
People approach New Years Eve in a variety of different ways. Some like to get dressed up and pack into hotel ballrooms with all you can eat buffets, unlimited champagne, paper hats with Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive providing the much needed optimism for the New Year ahead. Across the world people will celebrate New Year/Sylvester with Fondue, Raclette, Hot Stone, Marinated Herrings, Oil Balls, Oil Balls!!?, Hopping Johns, Green Lentils and other strange culinary delights and will listen /dance to, you've guessed it, I Will Survive.
I asked the boss what he got up to on New Years Eve." Well Mr. Crab" he responded, " My wife and I will have some friends over and generally we will eat stuffed pork. My wife is a wonderful cook you understand" he said proudly. "At midnight we will drink a toast to the New Year and sing Auld Lang Syne". "Personally" he continued, "I find New Year's Eve a lonely time and I always privately thank the Lord that I am still around and healthy, and that my family and I have sufficient." " Then " he continued, "as soon as I hear the first verse of I Will Survive, I announce to the guests that it's time I went to bed and let them all go home."
How can I follow that you might ask. Simply by wishing all our customers, partners and friends a very happy, successful and peaceful New Year and reminding us all to spare a thought for the less fortunate.
