All this talk of mistletoe is making me feel very Christmassy - are we having a Christmas party and should we be fixing a date biggrin.gif Everybody will have got their "works do's" organised, and concerts, and if we're not careful, we'll all be out elsewhere instead of enjoying ourselves at a forum party ohmy.gif laugh.gif

And I want to get a new outfit for the party, and get my hair done, and ... oh all sorts of things, you know what it's like for us girls laugh.gif laugh.gif I want to look my best for my first Forum Christmas Party! biggrin.gif laugh.gif

And we need to get decorations and crackers and a tree, and bake a Christmas cake and mince pies....

And is anybody going to make some home-made forum wine or some home-brewed Forum Ale??

So what date are we having it ???? smile.gif

When did we have it last year?

¡?!?!?!? Its not thanksgiving yet!! I say 20th of December.

Last year's Christmas party was on a Thursday. So I think we should continue the trend and do it on the 21st.

I have a nice mulled wine recipe.

The 21st sounds good to me. All exams and concerts finished by then so I can relax. Can I bring the dragon? He was so well behaved at the firework do.

Hmm... how about the 20th then, unless the 22nd is popular, although I was unsuccessful in getting the awards ceremony to be on a Friday...

Thanks CE, what would we do without you smile.gif You deserve a special present from Father Christmas biggrin.gif

Yes, we definitely had a Forums Christmas party last year; see the 2005 Christmas party thread for full details. 54 pages of complete madness in about 18 hours ohmy.gif

20th suits me - it's my exam date, so I'm sure I shall have a small thimble of sherry in the evening to celebrate.

Anyone want to put their name on my dance card? Be warned, I'm very discerning!

I can probably come, my mum's said that the wind band can come and practice in our sitting room that evening blink.gif So it gives me a reason to retreat upstairs on to the computer, though I may have to fight my Dad...
