NEW YEAR’S EVE CELEBRATIONS IN BRIGG



Many Brigg people visited town centre pubs to see in the New Year last night.
We weren’t intending to take any pictures but the above was a special request inside the Lord Nelson.
From 9pm onwards we also visited the Britannia (twice), Dying Gladiator and Yarborough Hunt.
Looking back over many a New Year’s Eve in Brigg, we have to say that we’ve seen pubs a good deal busier on December 31 than they were last night.
We bought a bag of chips to eat on the way home, about 11.30, and found no-one else waiting to be served!
Clearly a good many folk chose to stay at home, have their own family celebrations and perhaps let off some fireworks in the garden.
The weather - colder than of late - didn’t help and may be the reason why some cancelled their planned trips into town.
We had a walk along Wrawby Street and Bigby Street this morning and although we saw some litter about, there was not a huge amount.
A lager glass was neatly positioned on a window ledge in Bigby Street and perhaps sums up New Year’s Eve. Do we consider it  half full or half empty?
