For New Year I went with Sebastian to our host Sebastian in Helsingborg. Arriving pretty early we realized that almost everything was set for the party and the dinner, only a welcoming drink and the first course still had to be prepared.

Soon people started to arrive and we sat down at the table eating Parma ham with melon for a starter and then paella for main course. We were perhaps fifteen people, both new and old to me and the evening passed fast. Approaching twelve o'clock we left for Carl-Henrik's penthouse overlooking the city centre. There we then celebrated the new year in an appropriate way with champagne and for some of us cigars. It was a great view, especielly when you looked over at the danish coast, which for hours was made look like a wall of colour by all fireworks in the densely populated part of Denmark.

After making all calls (or trying to at least) we returned to Sebastian's to continue the party until early morning when most people went home. As non Helsningborgers me, Sebastian and some others then spent the night there and we left in the late afternoon the first day of the new year.

Beside my two friends Sebastian there were also two more. Can't be that often there are four Sebastians in a group of fifteen people. Anyway, I had a great time, thanks Sebastian!
