What are you doing for NYE this evening?

What, if anything, are you doing for NYE this evening?
I'm aware that there are many people who aren't into the celebrations, it's considered forced joviality etc. That's fine.
Tonight, I have a planned get together with some friends and vague associates. It'll be outside, seems like it won't be especially fun, and it's going to be 0 /-1 degrees C. I'm thinking of staying in and not doing anything. I do have plans for NYD, though.
I was quite keen to find a decent nightclub in London, playing some good house music/house classics, but the average entry price is about £50. I can afford it, but I don't think it's value for money, for what will likely be an average night. I won't entertain that idea further.

As I live in Edinburgh.
Im embracing it and going into the centre. Dinner booked for 8pm.
Have a few more drinks until the bells.
Watch the fireworks.
A few more drinks and then get a Nightbus home.
I wont be paying to go into the Street party in Princes Street but there are so many spots to watch the fireworks from for free anyway its fine. The fireworks are set off from the castle which is the highest point around.

Six friends arriving at 4pm. Four course dinner with each couple doing a course. Games, beer, wine, cocktails until midnight. Champagne and cheese at midnight. Bed probably 2am.
Tomorrow light breakfast, then 3 hour walk to the pub for a 2pm lunch. Taxi back then repeat previous evening of booze and games.
Friday huge breakfast, lazy morning then taxi to Winchester for scavenger hunt murder mystery. Cocktails at Incognito at 5:30 then dinner at a Teppanyaki restaurant. Taxi home.
Saturday huge breakfast and wave everyone off. Lazy weekend and back to work on Monday.
We do this sort of thing every year and have done for the last 20, all with the same wonderful people. To be honest, I prefer it to Christmas!
