I am going to a bar with 20 cigarettes and 2 children.
Or maybe I will be really annoying and take 2 cigarettes and 20 children.

This is meant to be ever so mildly amusing ...... just in case, some think I am being serious and start a debate.

You are possibly correct

I'd take the 20 cigarettes to the bar and leave the children at home amca! Now that would start a debate if anybody really cared!

I would take the kids to the bar....wait till everyone was drunk and send them round with a hat.:

Miss the Hogmanays of old when me and a few friends,along with most of Edinburgh,would go up to the Tron Clock to bring in the New Year.Lots of happy drunken revelry.Once the bells had rung to bring in the New Year we would disperse to go first footing then stagger home in the wee small hours for some sleep before going out again on New Years Day for more!Now Edinburgh has gone all up market and you need to buy tickets to get into the town centre and the pubs charge for you to get inside!Not all progress is good!This year its a 1950's Hollywood extravaganza at Bostans for me.Can I take this chance to wish everyone on the forum a very good New Year and all the very best for 2012,may all your wishes come true.

Ah, first footing Grizabella,,,,,,not sure anyone does that anymore. People now seem to go to organised events or like Scunner, out for a meal. Daughter #2 has here ticket for the Edinburgh Hogmanay extravaganza, lets hope the weather holds out for these big events. If I had the choice, I'd like to be spending Hogmanay in Bostans too LOL.
A' the best to you and yours
