Happy New Year from Scotland where it was a wash out.
Pouring rain and the wind was unbelievable. All the street parties were a washout.
Aberdeen - street party for 50000 cancelled
Edinburgh - street party for 150000 cancelled
Glasgow - street party for 150000 cancelled
Plus - the best was in Edinburgh - 8 tons of fireworks sitting at different locations - when they went to start setting them up they found that one ton of them had been stolen so the police cancelled the fireworks display![]()
How on earth do you just steal 1 ton of fireworks.
Anyway, apart from that - it was a great time:lol: and was celebrated in true Scottish style - with a wee dram and a shortbread biscuit and some stovies to warm the heart.
Happy New Year
