Working New Years Eve

Post by auntys_eyes »

Are any fellow WARSUGers working on New Years Eve?? And if so where abouts, and doing what??

I have been rostered on as the ABC's contribution to the TV news pool. Each station provides a crew for different locations around town. At this stage i will be at the Bell Tower earlier and then at Gloucester Park for the fireworks and midnight. After that i'm on till 3am for whatever happens!!

If you see an ABC cameraman out and about say g'day.
