Where are you for Christmas and New Years?

Always interesting to find out how many people stay at home!

The wife and I will be coming back to the UK to my parent's for Christmas and then over to Bulgaria on the 26th -> 3rd for new years.

As its an ex-communist state NYE is a much bigger celebration there

Stayed at home the last 10 years for NYE (kids always been too young to go anywhere).

This year will be in Newcastle of all places. Take the kids to see the glowlights parade hopefully.

You're completely under the thumb Paul I'm going to be back in NI this Christmas as well, though I haven't decided whether to stay there for New Year or fly back to London.

Majority of family going to my sisters (in Grimsby) for Christmas as it's easier for us to all go to hers due to my nephews

New Years I'm working, but going to a friend's house party.. the past three years have always been very ridiculous. The kitchen floor is still stained from some crazy huge party poppers from the first year they held one!

This will be the first year where I do not have responsibility for any shared or reseller hosting clients. Wonder if I can leave the laptop off for more than a day though
