    Would you like to be in Times Square in New York, with 2 million people, 8 degrees F, and a wind chill factor of -5 F?

    New Year's Eve. The cold and the crowd would turn me off.  I like watching the festivities on t.v.

    No, I'd rather be where I was last night. It was minus 15F with a wind chill factor of minus 26F. Much nicer. Haha! No wimps here. Fortunately, except for a walk to and from my car, I was inside.

    Happy New Year to you. It is not a tradition to eat BEP's here for the first day of the new year. I don't think they are really popular here at all. They are called black eye(ed) beans here.
    I made a bit pot of BEP's and homemade Mexican cornbread and gave some to Roy's ex-wife and son and I sent some home with the grocery delivery guy. LOL

    Black eyed peas....only in America. Never heard of them (before aka) except in recipes from the south. :)

    No complex required. I like Americans even if they do eat "funny stuff". :)

    Might as well eat jalapenos AND oatmeal together....get it over with. Add some black eyed peas too. :))

    Of course not. 

    No thanks mate,to big a chance of getting shot in America,on our news over here the other morning,they gave a stat from 2017,using 4 or more of being a mass shooting,in 2017 there were 330 mass shootings in 2017,,That is only 6 short of 1 mass shooting a day for the whole year..Astounding..and you do have some sort of gun control,i am guessing that it aint working..>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<..

    I wouldn't mind at all, but I would rather be hanging out with the crowd watching the fireworks at Edinburgh Castle.

    I was there to see the fireworks display in November for Guy Fawkes night. It was spectacular!

    Only if I was in the city two eves before and two post after. Recuperation, ya know? I loved time square when I was there and crowds were never my bane. I’d be more than happy to share my excitement wth a stranger.......

    There is no way in h----  I would stand outside in those conditions. 


    Ok, there is one condition under which I would do that ; - - - that would be if Paul McCartney was standing beside me , talking to me and maybe putting his arm around me.  :-) 

    i would prefer to watch the fireworks from the Opera House esplanade, the spectacular display off the Sydney Harbour Bridge and surrounding areas of Sydney harbour reputably the best on the planet in warm balmy weather.
