In all of life, there’s nothing as reliably disappointing as New Year’s Eve. The hype, the hoards, the standing around in the cold. The remembering that the BBC2 Hootenanny is pre-recorded. We’ve had automated PPI calls that delivered on more of their promises than the average December 31st.
Aim small and you’ll end up underwhelmed and sad in someone’s living room, convinced everyone is out having the time of their lives without you; go big and you’ll end up underwhelmed, sad and skint in a huge cottage in Northumberland, worried nobody is having the time of their lives WITH you.
It’s a game we know we’ll never win – and yet, like that 11pm round of Boxing Day Monopoly with your pedantic cousin Derek, we always end up playing anyway.
You’ve left it too late to buy tickets for That Massive Cool Thing or to plan a ball/ski trip/river cruise now anyway, so why not leave this year’s realistic NYE plans in the hands of fate? Or rather in the hands of me, who penned this helpful and probably quite scientific quiz. Good luck!
