Hey All

Little bit of a 'low/downer' for me this year on New Years Eve folks. My wife is off to the USA on 27th Dec through to 11th Jan, for a surprise visit to her sister who lives in Seattle. Her sisters hubby has planned an 'all three sisters together' Christmas surprise for his wife (my wife's sister) and is paying for my wife and their other sister here in the UK to fly across to the USA for the trip. Now, even though we discussed her going before she made up her mind, and of course I support her going over there, I will miss her and am still rather sad that she won't be here with us over this period - more really though for my daughter than myself... but meh... I am not going to sulk about it, and I want to have my daughter enjoy herself, so I am determined to have an excellent time with my lad and gal.

So... rather than stay at home, it might be that we're looking for somewhere to go on New Years Eve to celebrate the arrival of 2009 - and that's where you come in. OK, I am aware of the festivities taking place in London, but heck, I currently work there and am not really interested in another trip up, so can anyone suggest alternative places/events that could be worth considering a trip for.

What do you rekon... a nice evening in together, or a trip out somewhere...?
 
I shall be watching Jools Holland's show on tv. Last year one of his guests was Kylie Minogue in one of the most figure hugging dresses I've ever seen!!! Open a few bottles of wine or your favourite tipple etc!
 
Thanks KoG.

I guess everyone else doesn't want me at their venues eh! :):)
 
I suspect one of your problems, assuming you're looking to stay somewhere, might be availability at short notice. If you have somewhere in mind, feel free to search our hotel site - we have recently added a facility whereby you can search for availability and get the best price from all those hotels that have vacancies - just go to any city/town/village page on the site, and you'll be able to search all the hotels in that area. Hope this is some help... let us know where you go/what you do! :)

Aw bless, have a great time whatever you decide to do (sorry can't help with any suggestions).

As a complete longshot. How about surprising your wife and joining her :D
Or at least joining her, then taking your son and daughter to Seattle, letting your wife spend time with her sisters.

Mind you I can't imagine it will be cheap, but it'd shock the hell out of your wife if you turned up lol
