Mine was a couple of weeks ago and DH and I went - was v nice. I'm one of the younger staff members at 43 Grin so it's just a nice dinner out.

DH's is an unofficial do tonight - a boozy boys night out that's starting far too late so he's sacked it off. Leave it to the young'uns Grin

I'm not going to either of the ones tonight or either of the ones I'm invited to tomorrow as I can't get a babysitter.

To put this in perspective, I've not been invited out since last year. Then I have to say no to four invites in two days.

I am feeling very sorry for myself...

Mine was last week. Dinner dance at an extra-premiership football club, with a live band.

Our table was in a square between the gin bar, normal at and the loos. We had a fab night!

DH is out tonight. They’ve gone for a curry.

ClemDanFango · 14/12/2018 20:30

Ours has been cancelled, so many people pulled out last minute it’s been sacked off completely.

ApolloandDaphne · 14/12/2018 20:32

I don't have any Christmas parties and DH is away on business so i am all alone.

I have a terrible cold so i am taking two Night Nurse and having an early night.

Rock 'n' Roll lifestyle here. Xmas Sad

They should just be sitting down to eat at mine.
Not going because I don’t want to. I hope they have a lovely time and I’ll hear all about it on Monday.

Ours is tonight, I'm not going because I don't want to!

We have to pay for our own meal (public sector, no freebies), and I'd either have to drive or spend another £30 on a taxi home. Its freezing cold outside and I am inside with my DH and dc, pjs on and a glass of wine. I win Xmas Grin

beela · 14/12/2018 20:34

But yes, I hope they have a lovely time.

I miss going to Christmas Parties! Working in Hospitality sucks, Never a work do until well into the New Year then it never feels as Festive!

Ooplesandbanoonoos · 14/12/2018 20:38

Wish i was. In bed already with teething non sleeping baby who is EBF and refuses a bottle or dummy! At the moment I feel like I will never be able to go to a party again!!
Missed my office xmas do but doesn't sound like there was any goss to share!

anothermansmother · 14/12/2018 20:40

I'm not going to mine. I've done the food shop and an in my pjs watching tv after a lively hot bath. Loads of people have already messaged me to see when I'm arriving...I've told them all I'm not. I know one of them assumed I'd give her a lift home, so will be switching my phone off as she has a habit of calling if she can't get a cab to see if I can collect her!

anothermansmother · 14/12/2018 20:41

Lovely not lively...what is s lively bath?!

babysharkah · 14/12/2018 21:16

Nope. I've just over the hangover from mine in the week. I'm looking forward to going to. Ed very soon!
