Reflections on Parties

It's the holiday season, so everyone is being bombarded with holiday parties!  Here are a few tips from Bridget on how to successfully navigate the party scene.

1) Party attire.  It's very important to wear something appropriate for the party you're attending.  If there's a theme, by all means, embrace it.  The last thing you want is to be the sore thumb that sticks out.

"Where are all the other tarts and vicars?"

2) Party mingling.  It's important to sense when the mingle has come to a natural end and move on.

"Do you know....where the toilets are?"

3) Party conversation. Keep conversations light and cheerful, reveling in the festive mood.

"Tell me, is it one in four marriages that end in divorce, or one in three?"

Hmm.  Perhaps you'll have better luck.
