Holding a social event in the comfort of your own home is a great solution, and will give you the perfect opportunity to get dressed up to the nines and catch up with the people you care about in a warm and dry environment. As the shorter, darker and colder evenings of winter set in, all of a sudden, the idea of going out doesn’t hold quite the same appeal as it did during the spring and summer months, and the idea of having to brave the rain and wind to socialise with friends is enough to put anyone off in favour of a night in instead.
