Yep, it sounds like crusty 1 and jimmyj are getting old. I know because I'm in the same boat.:laughing: You see, New Year's Eve is also my wife's birthday. From 1977 through 1988, 11 years, we hosted a combination New Year's Eve/Birthday party at our house. Plenty to eat and drink. I used to make a pretty good champagne punch (Champagne, pineapple sherbet, orange juice, etc.). We always had a big crowd; neighbors, friends, and family. And the party usually broke up around 1:30 a.m.
And now . . . . Some of the family are coming for lunch and my wife's birthday tomorrow, and tomorrow night, just like you guys, I'll probably be in bed by 9:30 p.m. and certainly no later than 10 p.m.:laughing:
