Club Arnage

Well as everyone might guess, 2012 has been about the shittiest year of my life, having lost our best man, an old schoolmate, in February, as well as Deb in September, of course. Indeed, of the 6 of us at our (intentionally!) tiny wedding ceremony in 1974, three are now dead from cancer, which seems a bit unfair.

But - hey, life goes on, and I've coped ok so far. I will repeat what I hope I said at the time - CA meant a great deal to Deb, and your warmth over the years, and especially during the tough times in the last 4 years, has certainly helped me too.

But my troubles are not really yours, and I sincerely hope that everyone gets suitably wrecked tonight, has a good New Year, and that 2013 brings us all a little more of whatever we lack.

I look forward to seeing many of you in June!
 

Happy new year Mr T. I hope 2013 is a lot better than 2012 and i look forward to meeting you in a field in france in june. I intend to celebrate tonight with far too much beer and will probably fall over a lot!

Happy new year to everyone

All the best Ian, I certainly hope you have a better 2013 and remembering the many good times helps you through the dark times.
Looking forwards to seeing you and the rest of the reprobates from CA in June.

Thanks Ian and all the best to you. Things are not quite the same here without Deb, and you calling in from time to time help us feel a connection, and remind us of the better times, so please keep calling by.

Not a big boozer, but I'll be sure to raise a glass or two to my CA friends tonight. Here's to a much better 2013 with fewer tears.

All the best to you Ian, and indeed to all CAers, for a good New Year's Eve and 2013!

All the best to you too Ian. I hope things look up for you in 2013 and hope to see you in June. And to all my many CA friends, have a good one.

Ian thanks for thinking of us at this difficult time mate, our love for Deb stays with you too

Here's to a warm greeting in a field near you next summer

And tonight a toast to Deb, 'here's to her  none's like her'


and all absent friends too of course

Aye and see all you others near that field too 

cheers

Happy New Year to all my CA friends. All the best for 2013.

A belated happy new year to one and all.

Ian, I concur with you, A SH1TTY late part2012 but not as bad as yours but all the same not one to look back on with fondness.
Good to read you as always, thinking of a sunny field in france that wont be the same for obvious reasons.

A healthy and prosperous new year to you all.
