Planning my virtual MSE house leaving NYE party - who to invite?

Options
Recently put my house on the market. Already had viewings from the agents database but it's going live on Boxing Day after reading so many threads here on that being the busiest day for searches. I'm confident it will sell and hopefully before March 31st so the buyer can benefit from the SDLT incentive. Before I leave, it has great entertaining space, so I'm inviting a few MSE forumites as I think they'll be great to have around.
Thrugelmir, Albermarle & dunstonh so I can pick their brains about retirement. greatcrested, AdrianC & Slithery so we can compare notes about property. Doozergirl for her design ideas and in the corner would be fred246 and Crashy who would add some contrasting views to the evening until Martin Lewis arrived for the 10 minute guest of honour spot I will arrange for him. Who have I forgotten to invite?

  • Boxing day is apparently the busiest day for web property searches, but my guess is 99% are just bored tyre kickers.
  • That's the trouble with publicly naming names....
    But providing you have zoom facilities I'll be in the corner on a screen - being designated vulnerable I mostly ignore the tier system and just self-isolate come what may....
    Nice idea though!

    Could 00ec25 be revived for the party?  Or failing him @oldbikebloke? He has a similar sense of humour.

    Crashy will probably tell you that you paid too much for the drinks and if you had waited until the new year they would be a lot cheaper
    When I was little, I had a book called "Hooper Humperdink? Not Him!"  He invited everyone from A-Z and the party got bigger and bigger with all sorts of grand plans and rollercoasters, but Hooper wasn't invited.

    The real party was modest and Hooper was invited.   This is that party.  🥳
