New Year In Silverton

new year was seen in traditionally in the village at midnight. Despite the cold weather a good crowd assembled in the square at midnight 'Auld Lang Syne' was sung, kisses exchanged and fireworks were exploded. Surprisingly, none of the young ladies who were scantily dressed for the occasion appeared to be suffereing from hypothermia but they did seem to have come prepared with a good deal of alcoholic lubrication. Celebrations continued well into the early hours, although it all proved too much for one well known face who was found asleep in the early hours in the Lamb Inn resteraunt

Some photos of events will be pposted, hopefully tomorrow.
