Isi: [0:28] Happy New Year! Ting... ting we are too far away from each other to bing. Mitch: [0:34] Make a toast, to the New Year. (To a better one.) No more shit things happening. Let's drink to no more... (Stop... stop the shit!) No more shit. Isi: [0:48] We actually, um, for everyone not seeing this, which is basically everyone, we actually, do drink sparkling wine. It is not New Year's Eve, we are, way into the year. But, we wanted to cheer with you on the New year 2023. Mitch: [1:04] So Isi, how... how was our new year? Isi: [1:07] Super exciting. It was actually really, really nice. Because, we decided to stay home. Um, which we actually really enjoy, anyway on New Year's Eves, because we're both not really into those New Year's Eves parties, where you have to have a ticket to go into a pub or club, oh God's that's horrible anyway. Um, home parties are good... are good, but yeah, we stayed home this year. And, we had... should I say... tell the whole story, yeah? Not much more to come anyway. We had good drinks, good cocktails. We had, um, like an Italian little buffet from our favourite Italian restaurant here, that was delivered to us. And we had good drinks and we talked to some friends. And yeah, it was a good night, wasn't it? Mitch: [2:00] I don't really remember much of it actually, but I'm not sure that's my bad memory or the cocktails. Isi: [2:04] Well, I will now do the super duper transition to our first category of today. Mitch: [2:10] Remind Mitch what happened on New Year's Eve.
