[plug] [OT] NYE ideas?

[Jason]

Well, this year I'm doing something different.

This year, we're probably going to go into Gloucester Park, which is $33 
and you get to see some bands.

Usually, we start at home, drinking good beer, partying 
with my fiance (who I asked to marry LAST NYE!) and another couple we know.  We 
usually end up in the city, have a few more beers at the Belgian Beer 
Cafe and then end up on the East Perth foreshore, cracking open a $100 
bottle of champers and snacking on cheese, crackers and dip :)

I personally would like to do the latter again this year, but I'm not 
much of a social butterfly and my fiance wants to party a little bit 
more than usual :)

Really, don't think its embarrassing staying at home at all.  I usually 
get a couple of invites to parties and decline them, only because I 
don't find cranking up music I don't like at a loud rate and watching 
people get themselves so drunk that they make fools of themselves that 
much fun.

A lot of pubs in Perth are open, so get a couple of mates and just go 
and sit and drink at a pub.  No entry fee, they don't usually inflate 
prices for NYE, there is usually a bit of eye candy around and if you're 
in a more upper class establishment, most people are responsible and 
don't act like dickheads.

Anyhoo, thats enough of my semi-drunk rantings on boxing day :)

Hope you end up having fun and enjoying yourself no matter what you do 
:)

Regards,

Jason.
