New Year's Promise
The clock ticks down
The clock ticks down; the old year fades away, Bright sparks of hope ignite the darkened sky, We welcome dreams at the stroke of New Year's Day.
*****
With every chime, past sorrows fall astray, Resolved anew, no tear left to decry, The clock ticks down; the old year fades away.
*****
In festive glow, our spirits dance and sway, As resolutions form and spirits fly, We welcome dreams at the stroke of New Year's Day.
*****
We'll forge ahead, no daunting disarray, Embracing paths that make our spirits high, The clock ticks down; the old year fades away.
*****
Together strong, we'll meet challenges in our way, With love and laughter, no trial too awry, We welcome dreams at the stroke of New Year's Day.
*****
So, let us toast to futures bright and gay, To peace and joy, let's lift our voices high, The clock ticks down; the old year fades away, We welcome dreams at the stroke of New Year's Day.

Remembering the rink
If you were there, you’ll never forget it. For decades, Durham Ice Rink was at the heart of the city’s social life. From Friday night ice discos to crowds roaring on the Wasps every Sunday, not to mention a proud history of figure skating and speed skating, the riverside rink was the place to be.
