About this word search

New Year's Eve in Australia is a summer night, often spent at a barbecue, on the beach or in a friend's backyard. Many families with young children watch the earlier fireworks at nine o'clock and head home well before the midnight display.

Every entry here reads forwards, whether it runs flat, drops down a column or cuts across on a slope. Resolution and Champagne have the most letters and are a reasonable first target. Toast, Cheers and Kiss all belong to the moment the clock strikes twelve, so they are worth finding as a group.

Afterwards, everyone at the table can write one resolution using a word from the list, seal it in an envelope and open it next December.
