Near New Year

Happy New Year is still my favorite New Year Song.
On Wikipedia is written:

"Happy New Year" is a popular song by Swedish pop group ABBA from their 1980 album Super Trouper. The lead vocals are by Agnetha Fältskog. The song's working title was all the more festive and humorous; "Daddy Don't Get Drunk on Christmas Day". Although recorded in 1980, the English-language song wasn't released as a single until 1999 and charted in Sweden (#4), The Netherlands (#8), and Germany (#75), to promote the CD re-release of many of ABBA's singles.

"May we all have our hopes, our will to try
 If we don't we might as well lay down and die"

Please read the lyrics
 Happy New Year  lyrics

No more champagne
 And the fireworks are through
Feeling lost and feeling blue
 Here we are, me and you
 Feeling lost and feeling blue
 It's the end of the party
 And the morning seems so grey
 So unlike yesterday
 Now's the time for us to say...

Happy new year
 Happy new year
 May we all have a vision now and then
 Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
 Happy new year
 Happy new year
 May we all have our hopes, our will to try
 If we don't we might as well lay down and die
 You and I

Sometimes I see
 How the brave new world arrives
 And I see how it thrives
 In the ashes of our lives
 Oh yes, man is a fool
 And he thinks he'll be okay
 Dragging on, feet of clay
 Never knowing he's astray
 Keeps on going anyway...

Happy new year
 Happy new year
 May we all have a vision now and then
 Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
 Happy new year
 Happy new year
 May we all have our hopes, our will to try
confetti on the floor
 If we don't we might as well lay down and die
 You and I

Seems to me now
 That the dreams we had before
 Are all dead, nothing more
 Than confetti on the floor
 It's the end of a decade
 In another ten years time
 Who can say what we'll find
 What lies waiting down the line
 In the end of eighty-nine... (or in 2014)

Happy new year
 Happy new year
 May we all have a vision now and then
 Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
 Happy new year
 Happy new year
 May we all have our hopes, our will to try
 If we don't we might as well lay down and die

 You and I

CHRISTMAS CARDS

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I get............
This for the fifth time that I publish the Christmas cards I got with Christmas.
So we can speak of a lustrum.
Making a Christmas card.
It was for the forth time that I made a card with the wishes from us three, Tim, Rod and I.
Rod was busy in real life, as last year, so he could not join us on the picture. Last year I used pictures of us but I wanted to make a photo shoot with us in winter clothes.
I used the club to make the scenery and a snowman was Rod's substitute. 
I think we were successful.

For some time I have this card on my hard drive. And I wanted to use it as an example for a Christmas card.
 Maybe next year we could make a funny Christmas card.
