oh.... i thought it was an intimate affair 
i like chicken breasts stuffed with cream cheese and wrapped in streaky bacon served with fresh veg.
starter could be a simple mozeralla, parma ham and pea salad on a bed of watercress with balsamic vinegar drizzled on top (had ths saturday and its yummy)
for pudding just a big platter of fresh fruit with dark chocolate grated over the top that people can help themsleves to at their own leisure |

"Do a stew or something it's easy to do and apt for this kind of weather....homemade soup for starter and a chocolate moouse of pudding just do simple food "
I agree, keep it simple. If you've enough room in the oven, you could do soup on the hob as a first course, cottage pie/chilli con carne for the carnivores, and the same for the herbivores using quorn mince, just don't get it mixed up! 
Cheesecake made the day before from the fridge with a cheese board for those who can't eat dessert (I'm diabetic). Most of these can be prepared/cooked the day before to reheat/serve the next day.
Just be sure to find out how many/ whose veggie and if anyone has special dietary needs! |

I'm not a good cook. I'm not really interested in cooking so I don't try.
I can cook simple traditional food and I seem to be ok at cake making. I wouldn't try anything elaborate. Saying that I wouldn't buy things like fish cakes or beef burgers, scones, spaghetti bolognaise etc, I make them myself.  |
