I spent my new years dropping and topping tanks and sweating, and being eaten by mosquitos. Not a usual New Years Celebration I know but it was the only time that the water coming out of the hose was cool enough to not boil my fish alive.
After a long day at work, family, good conversation, good wine, and good bubbly.
The fish had been sorted well in advance of the day, no maintenance due until the weekend, and my daughter insists on doing all of the feeding of the household critters (but that's a 2 year old for you) so everyone was well looked after, especially the cat, who had far more people to stoke him than he was expecting.
