...and getting closer as I write this post. So I'd like to thank you all for sharing this forum with me over the last year. Some plaudits and some custard pies - as it should be, being humans, we really can't all love each other.
Whatever has been, has been and gone, and a whole new year is up for grabs to get things right or to make mistakes. That's what life is about, right? Making plans and then life gets in the way, so they say.
Don't stop dreaming, though. Often the journey is far better than the arrival.
Some friends are coming round in a while to see the New Year in with us, and it's odd to think that every one of the men is a shooter or former shooter, and has served in the Army, Air Force or police, often in bad times.
Just like here, we have a lot more that joins us up, than keeps us apart.
I'll let you all get on with your celebrations with this verse from a traditional Irish song - many of you, I'm sure, will know it already.
'Of all the money that ere I had, I spent it in good company.
And of all the harm that ere I've done, alas was done to none but me.
And all I've done for want of wit, to memory now I cannot recall.
So fill me to the parting glass. Goodnight and joy be with you all.'
G*d Bless All Here.
