I really understand that, although for me it's the complete opposite. I realised over the years that I hate being out at a big group celebration for New Year's Eve, and it creates a sense of pressure and expectation that I find really stressful. I used to enjoy doing small dinner parties at people's houses — there were two other couples in Cambridge that we used to hang out with on New Year's Eve, but one couple moved to Vienna, and other couple moved to Belfast — so now it's just a chill movie night at home with champagne and canapes, and I much prefer it.
