    We'll be retiring at the usual time, it's just another day. The New Year started on Dec 22, after the shortest day. But enjoy youselves if celebrating

    My head hurts.... Why do so called friends insist on giving you all kinds of silly drinks that you wouldn't dream of touching normally? I might go back to bed this afternoon.

    Feeling fine good considering the late/early hour I went to bed, although it was nearly afternoon when I actually got myself vertical. May have a wee drive later with the roof down just to clear the last cobwebs and start the year as I mean to go on.
    Please take good care of your S2k keep it by your side for long and enjoy it from the bottom of your heart and share the quality and legacy of the S2k with many friends so that the legend of the S2k will continue for long. Shigeru Uehara Designer Honda S2000.

    Had a pleasant dinner out with my partner then saw "the secret life of Walter Mitty" - we both loved it. Maybe being keen amateur photograpers helped us enjoy it's setting but that was one seriously good movie.
