WHO: Everyone! IC/OC
WHEN: Thursday, 21 December 1999
WHERE: The Manor House, Macmillan Park
SUMMARY: Mid-Season (Christmas) Party hosted by the Montrose Magpies at Macmillan Park, cocktail dresses and blazers suggested.
RATING: Low

The Macmillan Family welcomes you to to Macmillan Park for the Mid-Season Yule party for all of Scottish Quidditch (and then some).

The Manor House is decorated for the season, with each room on the first floor having a display of its own. The public areas of the garden are also decorated and kept at a comfortable temperature (as long as you are wearing a cloak) with plenty of warming charms. Christmas crackers are available on all of the tables for all of your paper crown and terrible joke needs.

Finger foods and drinks (alcoholic and non) are plentiful. Eggnog can be made either way and if you want a hot chocolate with a splash of whisky, nobody is going to bat an eye. Entertainment is provided by the Tomnahurich Quartet and the Calanais Singers throughout the night in the main hall. A selection of seasonal songs in the muggle and wizarding traditions were planned, but both groups will take requests. They will be performing both together and separately.

For any children who joined their parents in the festivities, they have their own party going on upstairs in the rarely-used nursery (think very large and extensive playroom with bedrooms nearby and a schooling area). There are kid friendly foods, including sandwiches, personal pizzas in seasonal shapes, a Hot Chocolate Bar, and cherry flavored fizzy drinks. There are, of course, plenty of sweets to be had as well.

	Kal wouldn't mind a dance, if he's offering. She apologizes ahead of time for her dancing skills, though, as her only formal lessons were before the Yule Ball while she was at Hogwarts. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mel tells her it's fine, he's sure she's a good dancer because most quidditch players are. Just let him lead and he'll keep them moving in time to the music and out of the way of others, and not try any fancy-pants moves on her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yes, please nothing fancy. I'd rather not end up in the gossip pages for the first time for something like falling on my face on the dance floor." She does her best to follow. She's not bad, but not confident in her moves, either. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Once Mel has a good grasp of her skill level, he adjusts his moves to it and keeps her in her comfort zone. Part of his job as host is to make the family's guests happy and set them at ease, so this is his goal with Kal. (Reply to this) (Parent)
