Well there I was, ready for A Quiet Night with Dog, Jules Holland and a surfeit of left over cheese.
Now this. NYE on the Embankment. Fireworks. Dancing. Oh well
Happy 2019 everyone.

About TanGental
My name is Geoff Le Pard. Once I was a lawyer; now I am a writer. I've published several books: a four book series following Harry Spittle as he grows from hapless student to hapless partner in a London law firm; four others in different genres; a book of poetry; four anthologies of short fiction; and a memoir of my mother. I have several more in the pipeline.
I have been blogging regularly since 2014, on topic as diverse as: poetry based on famous poems; memories from my life; my garden; my dog; a whole variety of short fiction; my attempts at baking and food; travel and the consequent disasters; theatre, film and book reviews; and the occasional thought piece. Mostly it is whatever takes my fancy.
I avoid politics, mostly, and religion, always. I don't mean to upset anyone but if I do, well, sorry and I suggest you go elsewhere.
These are my thoughts and no one else is to blame. If you want to nab anything I post, please acknowledge where it came from.

Happy New Year! We used to stand on the Embankment too, but stopped it once they started to close all the entry roads to the Embankment around 8pm. Didn’t fancy the 4 hour wait! Sometimes we book tickets on one of the clippers though, that stop by the London Eye around ten to midnight. You get a little goody bag and a sit down!

Now that sounds like my sort of evening. We haven’t been since the terrifying Millennium when I thought we’d be crushed.

I thought we’d be crushed the last time we braved the Embankment. It was after the fireworks had finished. Everyone wanted to leave at the same time, and the police had barricaded the roads. Nobody could get to where they wanted to go, and large queues built up at the road blocks. It put me off waiting on the Embankment again. If we go, we buy tickets for one of the clippers that stop near the Houses of Parliament.
