A nap may be in order.


'There are moments in history when everything can suddenly change - we're in one of them now'. So says the French President in his last New Years broadcast. 


Sophie welcomes the end of the old year by savaging a stuffed bear.


Her party loving brother stayed up late and looks the worse for wear.


For the PONs New Years Day is shaping up to be the best day ever - although a nap may be in order.


This French humour made me laugh :https://vine.co/v/iqVveY1QpzI

Not quite the New Year yet - here on the Westcoast of Canada.......with two hours yet to go . May we wish you and yours the most wonderful 2017 - with good health for all, especially for BOB and SOPHIE. Thank you ANGUS for another lovely year of your daily musings and reportage on the 'goings-on' at the ROF. Enjoyed by so many of us, near and far. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Maybe Sophie is using the bear to tell us what she thinks of 2016?
Happy New Year to all!
Cheers, Bertie and Gail (possibly the only sentient beings in Aberdeen just now...)

Happy new year to you all. Watching movies, reading, eating and napping are all activities we approve of here.

Wishing everyone in the Old Farmhouse a most joyous, healthy and prosperous 2017.
Middle England has got 2017 off to a rather soggy start...I think we'll be joining in with the napping later.

Happy New Year to all at the ROF, and many grateful thanks for your lovely photographs and your generosity in sharing so much with us. They've gotten us through some not-so-good times in this last trip around the Sun; here's hoping for a better circuit this time.
And extra ear scritches to Bob and the Diva. I'm considering a nap for, oh, the next six months or so.

I may need a nap as well! Hope your New Year is off to a good start!

By the way, knowing you lived in Italy, I thought of you when I saw this story on the news the other day. I had no idea.

Bob does look as if he might need to spend the day recovering from the festivities. Sophie, on the other hand, looks fully charged. Happy new year!

Love Bob's dishevelled look!
