What does the 'N' stand for in N-Night?

[answerbok]

Something to do with getting married?

[football]

Others call it the En night or Hen night. An evening for all females to go to the disco. As the opposite of Stag night, a much more sober affair.

Or is it a contraction of Night-Night, the kind of thing you say to your kids before tucking them up in bed?

I like footballs naive answer "a much more sober affair". Shows that you havent been to many hen nights!! Yes, you do get the typical, wear a veil with some condoms stuck on it and do a crawl round the same few pubs that you always drink in, but ultimately women can have far more of a good/naughty time than men do on their stag dos. You should try going to a few, It think you would be shocked!
