Does your yard have a Christmas do? Perhaps a lunch or something else? Is everyone invited? Is it a success?

Last yr our YOs treated the staff and liveries to lunch. It wa really great. Not sure what's happening this yr but I am taking the YO and her Mum to Olympia.

Yup, all liveries & a few other folk that have left but kept in touch over the years! Its always a great success, we usually go out to a restaurant or something, its nice to see everyone not in riding clothes!
 
Yes It's great to get out and see everyone in a different setting. I really enjoyed our Do last year. But even if it's just mince pies at hte yard it's a chance for people to chat and relax.

Not got the time or the inclination. I think the others feel the same!
 
I am at a new yard, but we are all going out for a meal, the 10 liveries, 1 groom, YO and her family. There will also be mince pies and sherry on the yard on Christmas Eve and day.
 
We have two seperate partys/lunches/night out as the yard is kinda split in to two "clicks" so to speak. Some of them are really funny up our yard and i think it would be havoc (sp?) if we all went out and got a couple of glasses of wine inside us.

The YO's also have a party at their house on the xmas weekend. Again, half the yard in one room and the rest in another.

Yup.
We have a big night out with all the liveries/YM/grooms etc, plus farriers and vets that are on the yard on a regular basis.
We then have a mulled wine/mince pies quiz night at the yard.
Then between Christmas and Newyear we all go bowling as the kids on the yard can't come to the other things, so we all take the kids.
I'm on a very social yard and we are always doing things/nights out/ meals etc!
