Ok, here's how it will work. Whenever you can be arsed, Each person will post the hours, minutes and seconds left to midnight and their respective timezone. As the clock strikes twelve, post a cheesy fireworks display stolen from Google or preferably an actual one you've photgraphed and uploaded.

Oh hell no! I can't operate a computer whist being so wasted I'm literally blind...

I'm having an insanely large house party and thus far have my pantry, fridge and four huge boxes of booze on top of the additionally supplies from guests.

Plus I've just bought a new martini set which I broke in last night. Soooo much gin.... so much vermouth... sooooo goooooood!

Why let basic maths get in the way of the new year?
By the way, I hope everyone's taking into account the leap second that's being added at 23:59.59 GMT.

in cameroi, the new year starts whenever three or more sentient beings get togather and decide to start one. having been blessed with being able to choose what to take of tecnology, and what to leave behind, though we are blessed with little trains, computers and every kind of power tool you can immagine (and even some you can't), praise be whatever mysterious unseen forces see fit to exist, and especialy the foresight of our citizens in choosing their priorities, we have never been cursed with television, voice phones, automobiles, and that most henious of all hooman attractive neucences, the pocket watch.
