Our adventures in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus continue....

December 31

- New Year's eve was spent at our villa with the aid of most of the Lapta Layabouts, at least those who had not decided to stay in UK. Joan organised a party with the proviso that all who attended brought a game with them and a bottle of something.

The games were great fun. We started with a whole pyramid of champagne glasses and the object of the exercise was to remove glasses one by one without toppling the pyramid. Geoff was the ultimate loser at this one, lucky that the glasses were all plastic. Sandy had

also brought along her game of Tumble which you probably all recognise with the tower of wood blocks. As you can see in the pic it can get very precarious at the end.

Pat & Bryan brought along their racing turtles so we were able to have three heats followed by the finale, which Joan won and was rewarded by a bottle of wine, not really such a surprise knowing the Layabouts.

After midnight, after we had all had a few drinks we got out the loo rolls and played the mummy game. Sandy complained that our loo paper quality was too good as it kept separating, but then some wrap a better parcel than others. Eventually the winner was declared to be the team of Ann & Geoff who were succesful in mumifying Geoff completely. A whole load of chocolate kinder eggs went to all contestants.

All in all a good evening enjoyed by us all and a nice way to bring in the new year with friends.
