Re: Happy New Year!
Well I got there first. (Well actually, our New Zealand friends even beat me to 2016).
Just got back from Cowes, a local beach resort town on Philip Island about an hour's drive from us. It was about 40°C yesterday so my wife decided she wanted to go sit down by the beach where it was cooler and have a picnic, then wait around for the fireworks. (The real type... not what you were thinking).
Well, it was the most pathetic fireworks display I've ever seen. Lasted about 30 seconds. The crowd of several thousand on the beach got more entertainment from an illuminated drone that was flying around in the dark for about an hour.
