Baking DD's birthday cake :)
Rouge, that sounds good. I hope you turn into Tinkerbell (after the absinthe).
i will take bilby and myself to my auntie's house to sleep, so we don't have to be in our neighbourhood on NYE (too unsafe). My aunt will be out, so i might do some craft or watch the fireworks over Sydney Harbour on tv at midnight, bilby goes to bed pretty early.
my DH is working his coffee/slushie van at Birrarung Marr so its just me and the kids! I hate going out on NYE so just a quiet one with some take away for me and the kids. btw anyone going into the city- go check out my DH's van! Its bright purple so you cant miss it! He is selling all natural slushies, healthy wraps, fruit salad and smoothies and of course coffee/tea/hot choc etc. its gonna be a biggie
No plans for us. We aren't fans of heading into the city and dd is frightened of fireworks
I put out a call for a Hawaiian party at our place but all our friends have plans/kids so looks like it will just be DH, BIL and I! Planning on cracking my bottle of Moet, getting loads of seafood and probably crashing before 12!!
Camping down at southend near robe on the sa coast with 4 other families. Should be fun!
Lol DH brought a bottle of that for new year but I think it's the fake version.:
We are child free as its ex year for new years so we are headed to SIL house for a pool party and crashing there for the night.

probably nothing much! at a stretch i may be able to make it to midnight but probably not :lol: maybe next year we'll do something!
I doubt I'll make it to midnight. DH is on standby and it's going to 40C over the weekend so there's a very high possibility that he'll be at a bushfire instead of being home. (He's such a hero)
Last year DD was in RCH and DH and I went down and sat in a little park in North Melbourne and watched the fireworks. It was awesome.
After two invites to somewhere else, and one effectively rescinded (because calls for more details have gone unanswered and through a 3rd party we hear there are some major family problems that have overtaken the invite!), we are staying at the farm again - perfect! Same company as last year (mutual friend of same people of rescinded invite, as last year's NYE by same people got too complicated), so we're gonna have a great night, kids will crash eventually (the DS's will probably want to both sleep in the caravan, so I'd better give that a clean out) and we'll drink gently, talk silly and watch the glow of the fireworks from behind our hills, as we nestle in along the creek in our valley and hope the horses don't mind fireworks (my horse wasn't living here last year and I don't think he had to endure them so close where I used to keep him!), even if it is just a glow...
Planning a gourmet brekky on New Years Day, then a meander down to Kongwak Market and we'll see how brave we are to head into Inverloch with the holiday crowd...though if we head into Invy early for a morning surf we can spend the rest of the morning at Kongwak and retire to the farm again!
I'm looking forward to low-key, low-hassle and low maintenance company :) (the people who are responsible for the rescinded invite also provided us with one of the best NYE we've ever had two years ago, also low key but fantastic food and company...I believed it to be a one off at the time and DP didn't...I hate being right about it :( )
I'm down at a holiday unit down the beach, just my lads and I. We'll be going to the beach carnival between 5-9 and then heading home to bed. I don't think I'll make midnight.
2011 can bugger off. It's been one of the worst years of my life.
The boys and I will probably go to our friends place for a BBQ. I doubt I will make midnight though. :p
Now I'm wondering if we should take the kids for fireworks somewhere... But it's going to be blooming hot in Melb, right?
Might give that a miss...
That sex and the city marathon sounds good...
I'm also making arancini balls and sausage rolls. Noms.
Div.... you need to top off the night with the hot jam donuts down there!! They are divine!!
Might come for a visit in the morning & get some!
Rouge- Stop teasing :rofl: They sound DIVINE!!!!!!!
Might skip the fireworks, send the kids to bed early and settle in with a box of cheezels.:
