Happy New Year everyone!

Wednesday was the first day of the 3rd Millenium in the Ethiopian Calendar (which is based on the Coptic Church calendar).

I spent Tuesday evening in Trafalgar Square, with what looked like at least 3000 Ethiopians and their friends, partying "like it's 1999" for the very last time.

September is a great time to start the year. It's still warm enough to sit out and barbecue and drink wine at midnight.
