Well on New Years Eve we got together with 6 other couples from the church and went out for dinner. We then came back to our house to let the babysitter go out, she was one of the daughters of the couples we were out with. I then proceeded to show them how to play dice. The Juliens and Borcherts taught us how a couple of years ago during the Christmas season and now I have passed the traditon to Ireland. They really enjoyed the game. We had quite a multicultural bunch, 2 Canadians, 3 Englishmen, 2 Nothern Irishmen, 1 Brazilian and 6 local Irishmen. I know it looks like we look like a bunch of boozers but we all shared a bottle of champagne to ring in the new year. Really!!
