6 January 2016 - History Spotlights...

Elvis Presley: 8th January 1935 - 17th August 1977

Elvis was born to Vernon and Gladys Presley in a two-room house in Tupelo,
Mississippi. His twin brother, Jessie Garon, was stillborn, leaving Elvis to grow up
as an only child. He and his parents moved to Memphis, Tennessee in 1948, and
Elvis graduated from Humes High School there in 1953.
His family lived on the poverty line, his father was known to be an idler, often in
trouble with the law, was jailed for a cheque forgery in 1938 and during that time
the family lost their home. His mother frequently turned to drink as a support.
The first public Elvis performance came when he was just ten, in a singing contest
at the Mississippi-Alabama Fair and Dairy Show, where he managed to come in second. Dressed as a
cowboy, the young Presley had to stand on a chair to reach the microphone and sang Red Foley’s “Old
Shep” a song which has become a fond favourite of many Elvis fans.
In his youth he was a shy boy, and suffered a lot of mickey taking at school for being a ‘mommas’ boy.
However, this didnt deter him, and his love of music, any music, shone through. His recording career
kicked off in 1953 when he cut a record, allegedly for his mothers birthday. A year later he was back
to make another recording and was picked up Sam Phillips, the boss of Sun Records. ‘That’s All Right’
became a chart hit, and a few shows were set up to promote the record. The story goes that Presley was
so nervous at one of these early stage performances that his legs were shaking uncontrollably, and this
showed more to the audience due to the trousers he was wearing. Apparently this shaking drove the girls
in the audince wild, and Presley was quick to adapt this shaking into many following performances.
In 1955 Colonel Tom Parker took over as his manager and from there the Elvis star rose. ‘Heartbreak
Hotel’ was released in January 1956, reached number one by April, and sold over a million copies. From
there on in it was a rollercoaster ride of hit after hit.
Not content with singing, Elvis tackled the movies with a string of musical styled films including
‘Love Me Tender’, Jailhouse Rock’, Blue Hawaii and Kid Galahad. Although popular with the younger
generation in particualr, the critics however were not so impressed.
Between 1957 and 1960 Presley served as a GI and it was here that he first discovered the lure of drugs
and also began drinking more heavily. Whilst in Germany Elvis met a young girl named Priscilla, who
was only fourteen at the time. She made enough of an impression though for them to marry in 1967, and
thier daughter Lisa-Marie was born nine months later.
His career had its ups and downs, and the critics were often unkind, yet his music still reached millions.
As drink and drugs took its toll, Elvis began to put on a lot of weight and lost confidence. His divorce
from Priscilla in 1973 hit him hard, affecting his mood, diet and health. He continued with sell out tours,
and spent a lot of time in Vegas.
His final performance was in Indianapolis at the Market Square Arena, on June 26, 1977 and Elvis was
found dead in a bathroom at his home Graceland on 17th August 1977.
Posthumously, he has continued to sell records in large numbers, reaching number 1
on both singles and album charts around the world. Presley is reported to have sold
over one billion singles and albums, which would make him the biggest-selling solo
artist of all time. As of 2007, over a quarter century after his death, Presley still held
the top spot for best-selling solo artist in U.S. history, according to the RIAA

Derek J.Rolls

Independent Estate Agents & Valuers

ASK THE AGENT...

Q. With the market starting to pick up, should I put my home on the market now or wait till
Spring?

A. You have no idea just how often we estate agents get asked this question whatever the
time of the year, and whatever the state of the market!
And the answer, as always, is a resounding ‘NO! You do not need to wait till Spring’

You are right insofar as the market certainly has started to pick up. In fact, the past 6-8
months have seen an almost uninterrupted flow of good, positive news. But with prices
starting to creep upwards again, does that mean the canny vendor should wait a while longer
before coming to market in order to get the best possible price? No it doesn’t!

The simple fact is that there is rarely, if ever, anything to gain from waiting before putting
your home on the market. You mention Spring and certainly the period around Easter, in
particular, is traditionally supposed to bring the buyers out in their hoards. But that very fact
also tends to attract large numbers of vendors, eager to capitalise on what they optimistically
imagine is going to be the resulting feeding frenzy.

There is a philosophical point here as well. With prices on the increase, you could
theoretically wait forever in order to get top price for your home! Indeed, the only way you
could ever be certain of having got the best possible price, in this cycle at least, would be if
you sold just before values started falling again. And unless you were extremely lucky with
your timing, that would be unlikely to happen!

The longer answer to the question is you should move home when it suits you rather than try
to play the market.

Besides which, the one thing that just about every estate agent in the land is saying at
the moment is that there is a serious shortage of properties for sale right now. Buyers are
registering in their thousands, buoyed up by growing confidence in the state of the economy
as a whole, increasing availability of a wider range of mortgage products, and continuing
low interest rates. Yet agents don’t have enough stock on their books to satisfy them.


So, my advice is: “Go for it!”

Derek J.Rolls

Independent Estate Agents & Valuers

You may have seen us, but have you met us?

Derek Rolls...
One of the area’s most known and respected Estate Agents. Selling property
locally for over 30 years. Much business is from recommendation and most
of you will have either instructed Derek or know somebody whom he has
helped to move home! Derek has a very valued and sought after opinion on
the local market having experienced and worked through all it can throw. A
charitable chap who devotes much of his spare time to organisations helping
to help others. Currently, one of the sponsors of Moordown Bowls Club, we
are very proud to support a truly local Moordown club, a great community
facility involving many local residents.

Wendy Rolls...
We couldn’t do it without Wendy’s support. Mum and self proclaimed
C.E.O! From a Banking and Finance background fulfilling the admin role
and basically runs the place! Wendy will be there for anybody if needed
especially for those with four legs and a tail. As well as handling the day to
day challenges of a successful estate agency Wendy is voluntarily involved
with local animal search concerns. Her main passion is Dorset Search
Dogs and she’s training hard to raise funds for them in the 2016 London
Marathon. Currently working towards getting Giant Schnauzer, Hattie,
operational as a search dog to find missing persons (and even lost estate
agents) throughout the area.

Martin Traves...
Lives locally and devoted to the industry for 30 years (catching up with
Derek). Worked with a corporate agent and 10 years for a local independent
company. We were thrilled to have Martin join us just over 2 years ago and
he is a vital part of our small team. He has sold more than a few thousand
properties over the years for families, companies, solicitor recommendations
and helped to build investment portfolios. There’s not much goes on he
doesn’t know about. Spare time, volunteers for Bournemouth Lifeguard
Corps, teaches rookie Lifeguards, a qualified beach Lifeguard/Rescue Boat
Crew, doesn’t need too much encouragement to get wet.

We are a very busy agency but always have time for anybody
wanting to sell or buy probably their most valuable asset.
Honest straightforward advice.

Gales solicitors is a long established Bournemouth firm providing legal advice and
representation to the public since 1948. Over the years we have worked out of Charminster
and Winton and are currently located in Winton. We are an active part of the local
community taking part in local traders groups and events such as the Winton carnival and
the Kinson donkey derby. This year we were also proud to contribute to the Winton in
Bloom fund which helped brighten up Winton high street.

Over the years we have prided ourselves on offering a service which is both professional
and friendly. We have built up a large client base of satisfied and loyal customers. Many of
our clients have used the firm for years and in some cases we are now acting for a second
or even third generation. Whether someone is a long established customer or a brand new
client our aim is to ensure that our customers always want more.

As part of this we have maintained a broad range of services with experts in several
specialisms. This means that we are able to provide most of our clients with a complete
service under one roof. This ensures that we are aware of the wider circumstances of the
case and can pick up issues which might otherwise be missed. It can also help keep the cost
down.

We know that the legal world is changing and as part of that we have introduced new case
management software to improve our service for people moving house. However, we also
know that our clients want a personal service from an experienced professional. For this
reason we continue to ensure that every case is managed by one key person so that you
know who is handling your case rather than having to speak to an anonymous assistant in a
large team.

We also know what it is like to be fobbed off with jargon and we pride ourselves on giving
advice in straightforward English. Whether verbally or in writing we like to keep it clear
and simple.

Whether you have a simple problem or a complex case we can help. If you are looking for
representation in lengthy court proceedings, for help in making a will or house purchase or
just quick advice on your legal rights while you consider what to do we can help.

Give us a call to see how we can help solve your legal puzzles.

A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him. As
he sits, the waitress comes over and asks for their orders. The man says,
“I’ll have the Blue Cheese Special Burger and a pint of lager please,” and
turns to the ostrich, “What’s yours?” “I’ll have the same,” says the ostrich.
A short time later the waitress returns with the order. “That will be £12.80
please,” and the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out the exact money
for payment. The next day, the man and the ostrich come again and the man
says, “I’ll have the Blue Cheese Special Burger and a pint of lager please,” and
the ostrich says, “I’ll have the same.” Once again the man reaches into his
pocket and pays with the exact right amount. This becomes a routine until
one evening, the two enter again. “The usual?” asks the waitress. “No, this is
Friday night, so I will have a 10 oz Sirloin Sizzler please with a pint of course,”
says the man, “Same for me,” says the ostrich. A short time later the waitress
comes with the order and says, “That will be £18.65.” Once again the man
pulls the exact correct amount out of his pocket and places it on the table.
The waitress can’t hold back her curiosity any longer. “Excuse me, sir. How
do you manage to always come up with the exact change out of your pocket
every time without even checking?” “Well,” says the man, “several years ago
I was cleaning out my loft and I found an old lamp. When I rubbed it a Genie
appeared and offered me two wishes. My first wish was that if I ever had to
pay for anything, I would just put my hand in my pocket and the right amount
of money would always be there.” “That’s brilliant!”says the waitress. “Most
people would wish for a million pounds or something, but you’ll always be as
rich as you want for as long as you live!” “That’s right. Whether it’s a pint of

milk or a Rolls Royce, the exact money is always there,” says the man.
The waitress asks, “One other thing, sir, what’s with the ostrich?”

The man sighs, pauses, and answers, “My second wish was for a tall bird with
long legs who agrees with everything I say.”

16 Travel Feature -
The Iconic Sights Of The USA ... By Mags Addison

Here in the UK we have long held a love affair with the United States. It may have
been all those old Hollywood movies that captured our imaginations about this land
of exciting opportunities. But once the routes opened up and airfares became more
affordable to the masses, and not just the elite few, plenty of us have visited and
taken advantage of the sheer variety of places to visit in North America. Some
places like New York, Washington, Boston, Florida, Miami, and Las Vegas are
always on most people’s hit list. But from Arizona to Wisconsin, or Arkansas to
Wyoming, the choice and variety of thing to see are endless.
It’s a land full of `iconic’ experiences. And so familiar in places, that you’d almost feel
you were on a film set. It must have been all those movies we watched growing up!

The United States is so vast, it’s ideal for road trips - driving holidays; from the world famous Route 66 - dotted
with vintage diners and 50s style petrol stations, or the 150-mile drive from Miami to Key West on Highway One -
which is one of the great American road trips down the Florida keys, to the open spaces of Alaska, or leaf peeping
in the New England and North Carolina fall season (autumn).

Where do you start! From cowboys, the great outdoors, and native American history - to space shuttles, from
musicals on broadways - to fabulous and unique cities, from theme parks - to baseball games, and shopping outlets.
From festivals - to hitting the music trail; after all this country is said to be the birthplace of the blues, rock and roll
and country music.

The USA has some of the finest coastlines in the world, California, Florida, the Carolinas, New England, and further
afield in Hawaii. And it has breathtaking National Parks. Even the food is iconic! Like hot dogs at baseballs games,
coffee and bagels to go on the sidewalks of New York, luscious sea food in New England, gravy and biscuits in the
deep south, not to mention the highway diners , ice cream parlors, and lobster shacks. All that could hold you back
is your waistline!
The animal wildlife is pretty amazing also. Across the 50 states in the US, the diversity and sheer size of its
wilderness areas, National Parks, lakes, and rivers – makes it abundant with the likes of: bears, alligators, buffalo,
elk, buzzards and eagles, while the thousands of miles of coastline draw whales, dolphins, and sea lions.

You want adventure, it’s here, if you want to shop till you drop - you can. Or want to visit farmers markets, go to a
rodeo, explore the natural wonders, sight see in the cities, ski in many states, or enjoy a variety of activities on the
water. You can follow the freedom trail in Boston, the birth of the nation in Philadelphia, visit the seat of power in
Washington, take film studio tours in California, horse racing in Kentucky,
Mardi Gras in New Orleans. Find the home of country music in Tennessee, see
the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, or climb the Statue of Liberty in
New York.

There are many airlines that fly stateside now, with new routes and hubs
opening all the time. The choice is endless. Make sure you get your ESTA
before you go and enjoy.

Beach holidays, City breaks, Honeymoons, Weddings abroad, Adventure holidays, Ski,
Cruise, Tailormade trips, Flight only, Car hire, Airport hotels and parking and much more...

Project Indigo

One boy’s adventure through time and space!

Hi, I’m Tom, a local Doctor Who blogger & I write about my adventures online at
anadventurethroughtimeandspace.com

Recently I visited No Man’s Fort in the Solent, a
filming location for Classic Doctor Who episode
‘The Sea Devils’! I was a guest of AmaZing
Venues and Solent Forts. Children are not
normally allowed on the fort but they made a
special exception for me!
I embarked at City Quay in Portsmouth and
caught a boat called the Ashleigh R.
In The Sea Devils the Third Doctor and Jo
Grant visited the sea fort to investigate why
ships are mysteriously disappearing. The
Doctor had to climb a dangerous ladder to get on to the fort but I was relieved that I had
to walk up a ramp instead! I was expecting the fort to be dark and gloomy - instead it was
light and cheerful as it has been converted into a luxury hotel which opened in April 2015.
All visitors were given a guided tour and learnt about the fort’s history. No Man’s Fort is
a Scheduled Ancient Monument and is one of 30 forts built to defend the UK from the
French under the orders of the Prime Minister, Lord Palmerston. The forts became known
as ‘Palmerston’s Follies’ because by the time they were completed in 1865 the threat had
passed and the technology was out of date.
After a delicious lunch we were free to explore. My companion and I went up to the top-
deck and played Scrabble whilst enjoying views of the Isle of Wight. Also on the deck were
a boules track, a bar, a Hot House, a Fire Pit, a BBQ area and some Hot Tubs. There was

even a helipad which could be useful for materialising
a TARDIS!
There was an even better view from the top of the
lighthouse - it was panoramic and I could see the Isle
of Wight and the mainland. I used some binoculars to
see clearly.
Next I went down to the Upper Level and explored
the luxurious hotel rooms. The rooms were named
after famous ships. There were lots of places to relax
including a snooker room, a pool room and a games
room.
The bottom level was the Sea Level bunker and the
most likely place to run into a Sea Devil! I wondered
if I was standing right above the Sea Devil’s base
which was discovered beneath the foundations of the
fort.
Sadly at 4 o’clock it was time to board the Ashleigh R
for home. I really enjoyed my trip to No Man’s Fort,
the whole day was a real adventure, and it is the
ideal place to go for a special occasion! ‘’

Hi I‛m Eva a pretty 2 year old German Shepherd cross,
I came to Waggy Tails Rescue because of a change in my
family‛s circumstances. I am a good girl who loves to play
and I get on with humans and dogs alike but as I am still
fairly young I will need ongoing training. I am really good
company and I‛m missing having a family of my own where
I would be a loving and loyal member. The people here at
Waggy Tails call me their pretty princess and look after me
very well but please please could someone give me a forever

home.

For more information on Eva or any of the other animals in
our care please contact us on 01202 87500, e-mail: admin@
waggytails.org.uk or visit our website www.waggytails.org.uk

Christmas is now over for another year, but life at Waggy
Tails Rescue still keeps taking in animals that for one

reason or another cannot stay with their owners. All this cost the charity
a great deal of money so we are forever grateful of any donations made to
us, so if you have any unwanted Christmas presents why not donate them to
one of our shops who will gratefully receive them. As always we will be out
and about collecting throughout the year so look out for our yellow tops, so

all there is left to say is thank you to all who have supported us over the
years and hope you all have a good 2016.

Waggy Tails Rescue is a registered charity based in Dorset; we rescue
and rehome dogs that have been abandoned, neglected or otherwise
in need of a new home.
We also find homes for other small furries that may be in our care,
so to find out more you can contact us on the number above
or send donations or letters to:

Donations for Waggy Tails can be sent to:
Waggy Tails Rescue, Helens House, 143 Magna Rd, Canford Magna

Wimborne, Dorset BH21 3AW

*Please note, these are NOT Waggy Tails animals, just very guilty ones!

The Victoria Park Methodist Drama Group
“THE BELLES OF ST. MICHAEL’S”

February 17th, 18th & 19th - 7.30pm
February 20th - 2.30pm

Victoria Park Methodist Church Hall
Edgehill Road, Winton, Bournemouth

The scene is set in the cluttered drawing room of the Vicarage of St. Michael’s
and All Angels. Here the Rev. Hugh Featherstone’s attempts to write his weekly

sermon have already been disrupted by general dogsbody Dora’s singing and
hoovering; and the arrival of Mrs. Green and her daughter to discuss the latter’s
wedding. The arrival of a letter from the Bishop poses a problem both for Hugh

and the Rev. Justin Wade - vicar of the adjoining parish.

Programmes/tickets : Please call 01202 520482
£7.00 adults - £3.00 students in full time education

We have good access for wheel chair users but request advance notice in order to
re-arrange the seating. This year our profits will be going to Cherry Tree Nursery .

Brainstorm

1. If it were two hours later, it would be half as long until midnight as it would be if it were an
hour later. What time is it??

2. I am thinking of a five digit number. To help you it has the following parameters.
It contains neither zero or the number 1 and no digit is repeated.
The fourth digit is a quarter of the total of all of the digits.
The second digit is twice the first digit.
The third digit is the largest.
The last digit is the sum of the first two digits.

3. A jewellers safe has a rather unusual security keypad.
In order to open the safe you have to press every single
button once only, in the correct sequence, ending on the
button marked E.
Each button clearly states which button to press next, for
example, 2U means move up 2 buttons and 3R means move
right 3 buttons.
Can you discover which button you must start with?

4: How does this make sense? Answer on page 38
1 was a race horse, 2 was 12, 111 race, 2112

Farmer Jack was in the fertilised egg business. He had several hundred
young layers called pullets and eight to ten roosters, whose job was to
fertilise the eggs. Farmer Jack kept records and any rooster that didn’t perform
went into the soup pot and was replaced. That took an awful lot of Farmer
Jack’s time so he bought a set of tiny bells and attached them to his roosters.
Each bell had a different tone so Farmer Jack could tell from a distance, which
rooster was performing. Now he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency
report simply by listening to the bells. Farmer Jack’s favourite rooster was old
Brewster, a very fine specimen he was too. However, on one particular morning
Farmer Jack noticed old Brewster’s bell hadn’t rung at all! Farmer Jack went
to investigate. The other roosters were chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing. The
pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. But to Farmer Jack’s
amazement, Brewster had gripped his bell in his beak, stopping it from ringing
and alerting the pullets. He’d sneak up on a pullet, do his job and strut on to
the next one. Farmer Jack was so proud of Brewster, he entered him in the
county fair and Brewster became an instant sensation among the judges.
The judges not only awarded Brewster the “No Bell Piece Prize” but they also

awarded him the “Pulletsurprise” as well.

TIRED OF POTHOLES

DOG POOP VANDALISM

BROKEN STREET LIGHTING

FLYYTIPPING LOOSE PAVING?

REPORT THEM TO THE COUNCIL WITH

.com by

Bumpy ride this morning? View blocked by dumped rubbish?

Potholes and fly tipping are just two of the street faults that can be reported via
the website www.FixMyStreet.com along with vandalism, graffiti, dog fouling
and many other common community issues.

While most of us know that the council are responsible for fixing these things,
we may not know which council, let along which department in which council.
With FixMyStreet, all you have to do is locate the problem on a map, and select
a category: the site then sends it off to the right place to get it fixed.

All reports are published on the site, as well as being sent to the council.
Browsing your own postcode can be interesting, as you soon learn what the
persistent problems are in your area, and whether or not they are being fixed.
There’s also the opportunity to discuss individual reports in the comments
section.

FixMyStreet comes from the UK not-for-profit organisation mySociety, and
is one of its longest-running and most-used services. It is just one of several
projects aimed at making it easier for citizens to get things changed in their
own community. So, next time you see something that needs fixing, be it a
broken paving slab or a flickering streetlight, all you need to remember is

Jemima woke up on New Year’s
Eve and said to her husband, ‘I just
dreamt that you gave me a diamond
ring for a New Year’s present. What do

you think it all means?’
‘Aha, you’ll know tonight,’ answered

Max smiling broadly.
At midnight, as the New Year was
chiming, Max approached Jemima and
handed her small package. Delighted
and excited she opened it quickly.
There in her hand rested a book
entitled: ‘The meaning of dreams’.

There is no beating the taste of truly fresh
fruit and veg especially, when it’s yours!

Gardening Tips for January

Hopefully everyone had a good Christmas and New Year. There are few things we can be doing in
the garden in January when the weather and the ground allow us.
• Pruning Gooseberries, Currents and Autumn Raspberries.
• Apply some Sulphate of Potash around the base of fruit plants.
• Winter wash your fruit trees.
• If you didn’t sow Broad Beans in early winter then for a quick
start you can plant them now in pots.
• Clear any plant debris from the ground and allow any frost to
break up the soil and kill off the pests.
• Plan your vegetable crop rotation so as not to grow the same
crop in the same place as last year.

Do you live in Bournemouth?

Do you want to grow your own fresh fruit & vegetables & get fit & healthy?
Then come in & see us in our allotment shop. Saturdays & Sundays 10am - Midday

Large plots are £36 pa and half plots are £19pa
For more information – just ask us when you visit us

Gardening Tips for February

There is a surprising amount to do in February in spite of the weather and short days.
• Sow Sweet Peas inside in pots and pinch out the tops when 2 leaves have appeared.
• Fork and rake over flower beds in readiness for planting later.
• Plant any hedging you have planned for this year.
• Buy your seed potatoes and chit them inside in a bright frost free area.
• If you did not force Rhubarb last year you can do it now by placing a black bucket over to
exclude any light.
• Start sowing crops from seed in the greenhouse.
• Use a Copper fungicide in watering to prevent Damping Off disease.
• Clean up Greenhouses and cloches not already done with warm soapy water adding Jeyes fluid
if you wish. Don’t forget last year’s plant pots, stakes and plant supports intended for use in the
Spring.
• Take care not to tread on Spring Bulbs when walking across lawns and borders.
• Apply Ferrous Sulphate on lawns where moss is a problem.
• Plant Rose bushes now but do not prune until all risk of frost
has passed.
• Hydrangea flower heads can now be removed down to a pair
of shoots to encourage new growth.
• Remember to continue to feed the birds and provide clean
water to drink and wash in.

Take care of your feet...
Chilblains

Global warming is blamed for many worldwide disasters but
there has been one benefit as we have not had a really very
cold winter for over twenty years.
Chilblains (Erythema pernio) could be a thing of the past due to mild winters and better
living conditions, especially central heating. If we have a very cold spell now there will
be those who will wonder what this itchy red skin condition is on their legs and feet.

Keeping feet and legs warm with appropriate clothing is important. The best way to
keep warm is layers of clothing, ie two pairs of thin socks are better than one pair of
thick. I recommend thermal insoles for cold feet and for very cold weather fur lined
boots.

Chilblains are made worse by applying heat to the affected
area so keep feet away from the electric fire and hot water
bottles. If needed there are over the counter treatments
to ease the red itchy skin, eg iodine compounds such as
betadine, savlon spray, videne and ointments containing
methyl salicylate and many more. An old remedy for
chilblains was to soak the affected area with their piddle
(urine). This is not an old wives tale, it does actually work,
but there are creams containing manufactured urine (uric
acid) which are obviously far more pleasant to use!

Scratching the irritation will make the problem
a lot worse. Dirty fingernails could cause an
infection and broken chilblains could be the end
result which is a more serious problem requiring
medical help.

For chilblains sake let’s hope our winters remain
mild.

I’ve opened a gym called Resolutions.
It has exercise equipment for the first month of each year, then becomes a

bar for the remainder of the year.
...................................

I’ve spent the last two days spinning in circles. I put it down to my dyslexia
and making New Years Revolutions.
...................................

I just got a slap for calling my missus by the wrong name. I said, “It’s New
Year’s, Claire!” What made it worse was is her name’s Eve.
...................................

One of my resolutions was to take more risks. I then had a quality street
without looking at the flavour card.
...................................

I just heard Snow White call out, “Happy Yew Near!” “You mean, ‘Happy New
Year,’” I corrected her. “No,” she said. “I’m looking for my friend Happy!”
...................................

Why does that lot at Albert Square always celebrate New Years Eve 4 hours
before everyone else?

...................................
It took months and months of saving, but I finally managed to do it.

I saved enough to be able to afford a taxi on New Years eve.
...................................

What’s drunk and giving up smoking whilst going down the gym every week in
2016? Ten million people celebrating New Years Eve.
