Well it's just gone 1am over here in England...an hour into 2006 and I haven't broken one resolution yet!!!

Wearing a Niquitin patch, haven't had a cigarette yet this year....

But I digress, I just wanted to take this opportunity to say to everyone on Guitarnoise "Have a great New Year!!!"

Let's hope 2006 is going to be better than 2005...I have a feeling somehow it's going to be a vintage year....

May all your hopes, dreams and ambitions be realised....hmm, that means over 10,000 new rock stars - bit of a glut on the market, but at least we might keep Westlife out of the charts...

Once again, have a great year one and all....

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

A Happy New Year to you as well, Vic! (and to everyone else out there! :wink: )

I'm having a wedge of Stilton in your honor, sir!

May everyone's year have three hundred and sixty five of the best days of your lives!

Peace

2:09 and still haven't had a cigarette....

Got through a LOT of Jelly Babies though.....

Time for bed methinks, got family down for New Year's dinner at 12....means one of us has to be up at eight to put the meat in....and guess whose job
that's going to be?

Oh and David, you haven't lived until you've tried Stilton on TUC crackers with a smear of butter and Tesco's pickled shallots...since trying those, I
hereby declare all other pickles totally redundant....must be the chillis in the vinegar.....

:D :D :D

Sometime in the next two years I intend to make it over there and then I'll have to give your pickled shallots a try.

Hang in there with the non-smoking Vic. If you want an incentive, why not add a running total to your signature?

("...the proceeding message brought to you by Vic, smoke-free for 1 day...")

Seriously, if you put in half the effort into not smoking that you do into your songwriting and music, you won't even care that you've quit!

Peace

That's exactly what I intend to do - channel the time and money wasted on smoking into music....

Daughter said tonight, "If you're really serious about giving up smoking, you need a hobby....something to keep your hands busy....

Duuuuuuuuuuh.....I thought I used both hands playing guitar....and in a lesser vein, typing.....

2hours 28 mins and still counting.....

:D :D :D

I pledge a dollar a day to cancer research. For every day you don't smoke, I'll give $1. When we get to 365 days I'll write the cheque.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, Y'ALL! It's a little after 0200 here in TX, and my ears are still ringing! If the year goes like the party did, then I do believe that Vic is quite correct....... 2006 could very well be a vintage year! :D I have to say, though, that this was my first New Year's Eve in over 30 years where I came home just as sober as when I left! A brand new experience!! :D I think I'll be glad of it in the morning!! First New Year's Day in over 30 years without a hangover!!! Cool!

And, Vic, if I can give up alcohol, you can give up cigarettes! I'm behind you 110%! :D I KNOW you can do it!! I just wish I could!!! LOL! Is Marilyn quitting, too?

Once again, HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone at GN! I love you all dearly!!

Well I dont post as much as I should, but I really do think this site helped me stick with guitar(which I am greatfull for). I know that music has helped me through any hard times I've had in the past year and I hope it has done the same for everyone else. So I have to say I hope everyone has a fantastic 2006 and I hope music stays apart of everyones lives for 2006 and beyond.

Years of practise mate....
