New Years Eve 2016... Wow.
Time Flys.
I think ive lost the magical feeling and excitement for Christmas and New Year..
When i was younger it was all about being in the pub and with friends and the countdown...
Later in life its the man on the radio and the intimate shared countdown with the e tire country.. Or if you are watching TV the whole firework display thing. I think just thinking about getting to the London river firework display is a nightmare.. Besides standing in a crowd and struggling to even see anything...
I one went to a waterboard demo there by the river.. In London.
As you get older even the radio guy seems to be bored with yet another new years countdown and he is stuck at work while everyone is out... Lol.
Is new years eve the human strive for everybody trying to be together at the same time and share the same thing at the exact moment? Or just each persons strive to find the coolest/best people and go to the coolest place...??
My mate went to the Edinburgh New Years Eve carnival or something one year...
Mabe i should have gone to more interesting places for new years eve in the past.. But organizing my friends was never possible.. They all had a will of tbeir own.. There are always issues..
Some people can simply go off by themselves.. Or they are good at organizing people. I just about managed that for the Stonehenge festivals. But noe its not free as they have ruined it.
But good memorys.
Mabe new years is just about the "best meal and restaurant visit' of your year.
Or the best drunkest night out...
There is always the pressure for it to be the best or the raddest or the most awesome.. Its a bit like a competition...
Jools Holland.. Vs the London river fireworks.. Vs the BBC man in the box...
Who will win the nations attention and grand title for that one penultimate moment... The magical time that will come and pass away?
Yet if you type "goons of doom" into youtube.. You enter a world of daily new years days.. 365 new years nightd a year in surfdom party la la land... Fireworks.. Beach fires.. Booze.. Parting..
And it is no fantasy Justin Beaver party rip off fee to get in...
But are you cool enough to get down with the goons? or rich enough to enter the party world of the Beaver damm??
Or can we be content as a small child at a local bonfire or town forework display? The circus is back in town.. The village fete.. The extravoganza... The village library new years eve mulled wine party..
The charity shop firework display..
The pub beer garden.. The coolest pub. Or the coolest people or the friendliest people.. Or people seeking somewhere different to the last new year.. Something new..
A different village.. A different town. A different beach.. A different wine.. A different book.. A different city.. A diffetent bar... Dublin... Berlin.. Amsterdam.. New York... A living room with a man-in-a-box.. Stars on a screen..
Mabe its not any of those things..
Mabe its just your gran and you at home letting the new year in with a penny.. While your parents are out for the Evening.. If you still have a granny even?
Mabe its just 'knowing' its a new year. And nothing else. Mabe it IS just that magical excitement of Christmas or new year... Mabe your Christmas excitement fades away as you get older and the New Year is an adult celebration.. Rather than a childrens one??
Mabe new years eve is a time for hope and prayer that there is a CHANCE a HOPE that .. THIS TIME.. Or soon! Something will go right. Mabe something will go your way? SOMETHING with 'happen' it just might happen..
While everyone seems to be 'happening' themselves?? They are having children..
Going on holiday... Being in these festivals.. Sucessfully organizing things.. Organizing people... Making it... Doing it... Good for them... Again and again.. Year after year... Mabe.. Just mabe.. One time.. This time.. Sometime..
My ship will come in...
My train will leave the station...
Am i just the man-in-the-box? My own box?
Happy new year. I hope you have the time of your life. Truly. May your dreams come true and it all go right for you.
If you are not already there...
Mabe one day i might get there..
It wouldnt need to be so grand.
Have a Ball. Have it all.
A jewls worth a billion pennys.
The sparkly firework show...
The Man in the box...
The kind stranger in the street...
The Girl with a will of the world..
She is outside of your box....
Chasing the new year... Looking for a different place.. Looking for a different face... Mabe that is the magic?
Eve.
Chasing the snake...
