5th January. Getting To Grips With 2007.

I had to force myself to wish a "Happy New Year" to various individuals that normally populate 'Chimney World'. Naturally not many people looked that happy, because they were back working at somewhere like the builders merchants; or if they did laugh, it was the hollow laugh of irony.

Roughly translated, "Did you have a good new year?" means "Did you have a large enough intake of alcohol to momentarily forget just what a dead end your life has become"?

The general idea is that, if this annual opportunity for complete intoxication was missed due to some circumstance, then ones' life is very much poorer for it.
