Hey, I am a frog in the south of Aberdeen. Nothing planned for the first time forever. Probably a couple of beers with the wife and a movie with kiddo.

Cannae be bothered this time around

Am a Yank not far from the DC capitol. Got my spike shot, and I can still finish a marathon, so I’ll be wading into the fray of tourism, ignorance, and (hopefully) bliss.

I’ll be going to a section of the city called Adams Morgan after the fireworks, but no specific plans except I would like to walk around with a joint, since it’s legal there now.

No plans this year.

Probably for the best tbh as the engineer scheduled for on call this yr has been off sick and put in another line means I get the joy of on call instead of him.

Just hop I remember how all this shit works if I get phoned

What’s your on-call rates like? Worth a sober Hogmanay?

Normal rates plus a £500 bonus

The tax office loves it

That is decent at least, as a programmer I strive to ensure zero on-call required

I like a pina colada or a frozen daiquiri. I’m not much of a drinker so anything sweet I can handle!!
