New Years eve

I don't expect to be invited out to adult kids' homes for New Years eve.

We have a tradition of Chinese take-out for dinner on New Year's Day, very casual. There is American football on TV that DH watches, and some of the AC might be slow moving after an evening out, so it works well for us.

Will meet up with DD and GC in afternoon.
..Will join EDS early evening for a drink in pub and .....we will be home by 9pm very latest.....won't see my youngest DS ( 24) at all.....we are invited to a friends party but I can never be bothered with new year

I have DD's dog parked with me for a couple of days, wouldn't
want to be invited , honestly it would bore me and I couldn't
stay awake and be sociable.

I can't stay up that late either way.

New Years has never been a big thing for us, I’ll have dinner at my daughters but I’ll walk home by 9ish.

I always tell them if they're at a loose end they're welcome here (not that we do much) but wouldn't expect to be invited to theirs!

Never been invited, wouldn’t dream of it, our contribution occasionally is to have the grandchildren here so they can have fun with their friends. We did spend Christmas together.

When the parents were alive they were always invited together with a few friends but most people I knew didn't do that and just celebrated with friends of the same age.

Christmas is for families, New Year is for friends, is what we go by.

No, they spend it with their friends, as did we until we all got a bit old and couldn't be bothered any more.
