I know what you mean Alice, I've been to a fair number of company Christmas 'do's' and all of them (with one exception) were over priced and not worth attending. I did go mostly
just to appear sociable.
The
one exception was a company (now sadly taken over by some French multi national) They laid on a Christmas party in London with a good four course meal, plenty of wine, and a floor show with Les Dawson who was in good form that night, and
ALL of it FREE we didn't pay a thing 'tho some of us went on to a night club and that did cost an arm & a leg
Sounds like a great night your company laid on for you all. I've never worked for anyone like that
. We work as a great team at work, but like you, I just go to be sociable. I don't really like mixing work with play and prefer to go out with my own friends. I've a couple of lunches/dinners coming up and they cost half the price of the one on Friday
