    mines tonight, we're going for a Thai meal and then pub/club after. work paying for all the drinks at the meal. SO by time we're in the pub we plan to get the managers drunk and put all the drinks on their company credit cards

    We're off out tonight, just a normal night out in town, not sure if I'm going yet. We had a meal at a cavery with the residents last Monday (I work in an alcohol rehab that has 5residents in the main house and 8off site). Going for a staff meal Monday afternoon and then we've got the christmas social afternoon on Tuesday where we have a buffet, karoke etc and the residents can invite family and friends. I'm gonna be about 10stone heavier.

    We had a course "Christmas night out" from which most of the boring buggers went home early. When I get home I'm going to my old work's Christmas night out which involves getting as pissed as possible then going back to someone's flat to get stoned.

    None of these classy parties and free buffets for me, then :p

    It's weird where some people chose to have their Xmas party though, I was in the shadiest pub ever last night and smack bang in the middle of all the Jurrasic-age men drinking Old Speckled Hen were two long tables full of glam young things. Bizarro :lol:

    Ours was Wednesday there, and it was held at Arta, which is a most posh club in the posh part of Glasvegas. :D

    Was a hoot, I looked fab, my fake tan looked fab, and I shimmied/ballroom danced with the big boss of 3 Customer Services. Haha. We had a turkey dinner and 4 drinks free with your ticket.

    Was pretty tame in comparison to other night outs I've went to, but was funny all the same.

    We went out for a curry today for lunch. Just got back into work. Now tidying a few things up and going home in 5 mins. But we also went on a huge p*ss up last Friday and my little team will be going out for drinks one lunch time next week.

    mine's next thursday

    we're going to a pub near my boss's house, where we may have to pay for our own meal and drinks, and then have to perform a party piece or they'll give us one to do!!! :shocking:

    We have our Christmas-type thing in January, but it's also like an award ceremony, and you have to pay to go, so fuck that.
    But the place I volunteer at had a small gathering thing after one of the sessions. Someone brought some beer and wine and mince pies. Wasn't too bad

    Mine was at the end of November (two of the lads have/are away most of this month) we went out for a meal and the whole thing, inc. drinks was paid for by the bosses. We are proabaly going out on the piss next friday as well, and might even end up in the group nightclub for free!

    As I am a scummy student we don't have them. However, me and the girlies are going out for lunch on Wednesday and then hopefully a bit of a night out between now and Jan 9th.

    Last night, it was at a nightclub, with buffet + free bar 'til the club opened to the public.
    I overindulged. Seriously disinhibited. Oh boy.

    Mine STILL doesn't have a date (Can see it happening in January), but i suppose its a pub so finding a night when hardly any of us have to work can be hard. But when it does happen, we're going to another pub round the corner or the curryhouse for free food and booze, and going back to the pub i work in then for free bar all night. Fantastic :p

    I actually work in a bar so ironically we don't get a christmas party. We wait til a quiet Sunday night in January to close the pub early and have a knees up, when all you poor bastards have credit card bills to pay off from xmas and can't afford a Sunday drink :p

    We had two... one on the 2nd Dec (yes, THAT early) and one on the 16th. Free beer and food.

    I had to miss both through dental problems. :|
