    Hi Sandy, yes sound advice and I too will be opting for the budget version and watching from my sofa, I get tingles when I hear Big Ben chime. Hope you had a great Christmas and wishing you a very Happy New Year and here's to many more exciting travelling adventures in 2020.

    Do I also need a ticket when I have tickets for tattershall castle (do they have special offer for NYE?) or for R.S. Hispaniola? Greetings from Germany.

    Hi, Sandy, good video and very useful advice. You have identified the best way to spend New Years Eve. How about New Years Day? Is it worth going to the parade? I must admit I've never been. Happy Christmas and a peaceful and successful New Year. Fingers crossed you make it to Iceland. Looking forward to your next video soon.

    • @SandyMakesSense

    Here in Turkey it's a bit difficult to see the London Fireworks, as they take place at 3.00am and by then you tend to be a bit blotto! They do celebrate New Year in Turkey of course, but compared to London the fireworks in Istanbul, which are shown on telly, tend to be a damp squid!! I'll be sitting at home with my cheese and wine and see what happens from there. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Turkey.

    Because my dad does the fireworks for London New Years Eve on the Eye etc. we get special VIP seats away from the crowd closer to the fireworks. Though fighting through them to get to the front can be a painful and quite tedious job. Do get early or prepare for a nightmare of pushing and squeezing!

    I normally spend New Years Eve at home, watching the London fireworks on 📺 television.

    FYI, some extra advice -- as what she says is part true, you can avoid crowd congestion by finding less crowded routes. So use a street atlas on your phone to plan a way around. Also its possible to climb over walls etc to bypass heavy crowding, as people let this go. I an my pal used a church ground to slip in. So yes, its heavy, shes right, but i say, use shortcuts.
