TV News today showed you all cavorting about in night clubs and doing a big count down to midnight, as you do on New Year’s Eve at the start of a new era!
You might even be making Wishes as you hug and kiss! 
Aveline You seem to be quite a prolific writer. What sort of Christmas book would be for Adults?
