After a very wet and grey day during which I did not go out of the house, we headed over to our friends Richard and Anne's house in the evening to see the New Year in.
There were twelve of us in total and we enjoyed a three course meal with cheese and matching wines before seeing the New Year in watching the fireworks over the Thames on the television. We eventually got home and to bed at around 2.45am!
My St. Clementine's tart went down very well and there was only a quarter left by the end of the evening and I was asked about the recipe a number of time which was nice.
There were two more guests at the party - Mick and Keith the cats. Mick is a short-haired black cat who is a little shyer than Keith here who was happy to chill out and take a nap in the fruit bowl in the midst of the celebrations.
