NYE 2002 // at 23:59
Another hot, sultry night, the wind banging the blinds around, too hot to sleep... Nine AM and the rain has just cooled things off a little, but not enough to inspire me to do anything or move anywhere.
Rain! Torrential, cooling rain...
New Years celebrations were very laid back. Four of us went to dinner at The Gate in Church street, where we were charged a 10% NYE surchage — “Just because we can.” After the dinner we walked down to the river and stood on the footbridge half-way across, watching the taller parts of the city fireworks displays as they appeared above the trees.
