An almost literal all day Christmas party that lasted from 10 this morning to past midnight nearly stretched the limits of my soci-ability. Ha. Just kidding – it was my feet that couldnât take the heat – I blame the dancing at the Walkie ⊠but I had a fantastic day seeing and spending the day from people from my ex-workplace.
We started the day off with a very entertaining quiz that was organised by James which my team won! Heh heh. I was surprised how many people were in the pub even at 10 in the morning!
We then moved on to lunch at CafĂ© Rouge at Leicester Square. Lunch was pretty good except for the fact that they didnât get our desserts out in the right order and in the right quantity.
We had a great time with our Secret Santaâs with some people coming up with some creative gifts, especially these toy soldiers which proved to be a big hit with everyone ⊠well, at the âyoungerâ end of the table at least. đ
The Temple Walkie was next after lunch (which actually finished around 4.30.) Itâs the tradition to meet up with the other groups who have had their respective Christmas lunches elsewhere. I was amazed that the Walkie was filled with men men men. It wasnât until much later that more ladies turned up but the ration was still heavily in favour of the men.
The obligatory boyfriend shot:
