Is anyone going to a company or other similar type of xmas do?
There seem to be so many xmas parties going on!!
Considering an Xmas meal in early December in a Whetherspoons, I think the access to cheap booze would go down well!! Has anyone ever had xmas dinner at a similar pub?

but still its free so i might
But if I am then I'm not going.
Hanging out with people I dont know/like who are drinking WAY too much. Not exactly my idea of a good night out.
:eek: I'll say!
where abouts is it?, not wigan i mean the party
i aint got the money plus i aint been in a good mood for a few months and dont think things will change much for me to get better so i migt just stay in bed all day
what is kermit's reason for not enjoying it?
and yours too trinity?
Ashland the company I work for is based in Wigan. I have no idea where the party will be however.
All I know at the moment is it's free scran and a free bar.
The official company party will be nearer Christmas, probably in some fancy hotel. But I doubt I'll go to that one.
Nice one! My birthday happens to follow on December 27th.
Can't do it as I work for a franchise and the closest other bar is too far away to get staff to cover us. Maybe we'll do something after Christmas... Used to go for meals where I used to work (a little pub) in this hotel where people take hookers.
Food was nice tho.
Our works Christmas do is in December-we all go out for food paid for by the company aand get drunk afterwards.
But the whole shops do is on the 18th, at a posh hotel. Cant be bothered to go to that.
Seconded.
Blimmin heck that is a long way from you! Wigan is right near me
Last Christmas our company went to a really posh hotel and had a meal and a disco and stuff, it was sort of like lots of different companies together. It was fun.
The year before that we went for a meal at Wetherspoons, the Christmas Dinner was gorgeous!
What did you have?
The only thing putting me off wetherspoons is that don't do Xmas dinners on a Friday!! But the one I want is in a really great location. The meal is about £7.99 or so but thinking of just ordering a bottle of wine for every 2 or 4 people that come and doing it that way cos it works out way cheaper then ordering by the glass!!
some of the people i work with live to bitch and it really gets me down, maybe this will be a chance to show them i really have got more of a life than sniping at each other.lowlifes
Having said that, we're looking at having a sort of farewell do that we'll have to organise ourselves.
It wasnt last year it was the year before, so i cant quite remember. They give you a choice of starters, I had soup. Then its normal Christmas Dinner (turkey, potatoes, veg etc) then a choice of puddings...I think I had some sort of chocolate cake. Was lovely though
I've hardly met anyone form the company I work with. It's all based up north and there arn't many of us down here in the south. In over six months, I've only ever once been to the office.
ps nice to see you back.
Wellll if you need anyone to come with you because you hardly know anyone, you know who to ask
PS thank ye very much
Employees only.
My mates missus is kicking up stink cos she can't go and he's coming out on the piss with me. Last time we stayed away we wet to some lap dancing club, and later on he got arrested for criminal damage to a flume on a swimming pool totalling £34,000. :eek:
She doesn't like me.
Ummm..... Thirded.
