A guid new year to ane an' a'
A guid new year to ane an' a'
An' mony may ye see,
An' during a' the years to come,
O happy may ye be.
An' may ye ne'er hae cause to mourn,
To sigh or shed a tear;
To ane an'a baith great an' sma'
A hearty guid New Year
As sung by my Mother on New Year's Eve.
Cheers, blippers everywhere. Happy New Year.
ps;
I’ve just realised that the juxtaposition of the bottle and the photo might suggest that she had a drink problem. Far from it. She was a Scottish Methodist. No alcohol “…. unless prescribed by a physician.” (Methodist doctrine 1744). She would, however take a small Sherry on occasion.
