Am I the only one with social skills here?

Happy New Year.

I'm off to bed.

Dear Hod,

To answer your question, yes, you are. But the rest of us are learning a lot from you in the social skills area, so don't despair.

Oh, and hope you have a great new year, too. Very Happy


Regards,
John

I was going to wait for midnight , when the convention tells us the new day and the New Year begins.

Happy New Year to all of you - even to Hod.

It was nearly midnight my time when I posted, but I still remembered, and it's the thought that counts. Even grahamb appeared, although I feared some reference to a long defunct calendar pointing out that new year was still a fortnight away.

Happy New Year, everybody! I wish you all a good year personally, and on the national and global scale, may our leaders and politicians all experience a bout of common sense and good judgement this year. (Hard as that might be to imagine!) Laughing

And let's not forget - in 2016, we all get one more day to screw it up.

Leap to it!

Regards,
John

Or just practice our social skills until we catch up with Hod! Laughing
