Same procedure as every year, James!

Now if only I'll be able to get my mother, my brother, and my cousin to toast with me. . .

Never mind, you've got us to toast with!

The Professor! Cheers, slainte, nazdraví, prost, whatever it is in Quenya and Sindarin!

And once again, I am denied my preferred beverage due to my on-call status. A glass of milk, it is.

*toasts*

Happy New Year All,

and a toast to the Prof of course. Last night I may have toasted to some excess, so today my toast will be coffee!

Oh wonderful, but it's not that time yet here, and unfortunately I missed 21.00 GMT. So I have to do it later.

*clinks with you anyway*

Several days too late, but better late than never. Belated cheers to the Professor!

Tomorrow's the Professor's 120th birthday, so be sure you have your favourite drink in the house, or meet with friends at a nice place, so you can toast the man without whom we'd never have met!

I will be starting a new job tomorrow so will undoubtedly give my toast over coffee.

Can't think of a nicer way to remember a hire date!
