May I just wish all my readers a suitably self-indulgent Christmas, and my best wishes for an elegant and sophisticated New Year.

I started off the new year drinking bizarre green mixed alcoholic beverages served in oddly shaped glasses.

Does that count for sophisticated? It doesn't work for elegant.

I think I'll need all day to recover.

Whether it counts for sophisticated depends on how you drank your bizarre green mixed alcoholic beverages served in oddly shaped glasses. Doing so with élan and witty repartee, in the style of Nick and Nora Charles would certainly amount to sophistication of the highest order. Alternating your drinks with visits to the vomitorium and declarations to total strangers that they are your best mate would not.

I am confident that I know which of these alternatives you came closest to.
