I have to confess I don't much like them. Some parents have the good idea to drop the kids off and then pick them up a couple of hours later (thereby giving the chance to do something else).
Some parents pick parties at daft times. Eg Saturday 12-3pm. FFS way to go crapping on my Saturday.
Some parents pick parties that go on for ridiculously lengthy periods. "Please come to Franchesca's 4th birthday party, this Sunday from 12-6pm".
And they're either at someone's house, so you stand around like a total plum trying to get on with the other parents, or they're at McDonalds, the bowling alley or some such.
So I shall be skipping to today's birthday party, from 1-4pm which is at the local sports and recreation club that I used to play darts for. Big screen TV, real ale, and comfy chairs.
