Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

In the office as always and dead as a Wet SV! Its a family work day type thing so there are kids running around all over the place, except on our floor as its where all the developers sit and the IT bods! Will probably bugger off around 1ish i reckon

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office

Are you one of santas elves?

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

I wish, at least then I'd have something to do today!

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

Ah ha you see, everyone wants things supplied but they don't seem to want us round banging 10 shades out of everything and making as much noise as possible putting the new one in over the festive week. ;)

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

I is in too, but so far we have chatted about nothing much, have deleted some emails and am likely to spend the remainder surfing the tinterweb.......probably going to leave around 12:30. nI am also still sat in my bike gear as didn't see the point in a change of clothes for a few hours of sitting around doing nothing much!!!!

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

Here, trying to wriggle out of a conference call at 5.30 PM!!! Bloody Yanks.

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

Im in the office until about 1pm, then got a 3 hour drive upto the olds. Roll on :D

Merry Christmas everbody :smt111

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

Was suposed to be but couldnt be arsed going in for half a day so stayed at home.

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

At home just about to go to Christmas lunch at my in laws.

We used to celebrate Xmas twice, once on Christmas Eve, in German traditional style and as normal on Christmas Day.

But they've got fed up with the hassle of it all, as my brother in laws kids can't behave themselves, so now its just Christmas Day.

Although today is just lunch, no presents, which is a shame for my kids as it used to spread Christmas out.

Now its over in a flash of wrapping paper :p

One good thing is we won't be having carp for lunch, which is their traditional xmas grub. Not turkey like we have.

And I do mean carp not cr*p ;)

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

im at work. its not fair we should all be at home getting drunk

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

Well I'm done now, until Jan 2nd:cheers: the joy of being off shift. A I have loads of A/L to use up.

Gonna pack some stuff in a bag, then off up the folks house for a few days. Have fun everyone...

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

Can I go home now please? Seriously, I've read every thread on sv650, I've caught up on all my Register articles, I've found a goodly quantity of Monty Python clips on the Tube.

I'm really running out of things to keep myself occupied with whilst waiting around on the off chance that someone wants an MPLS network designing in the next four hours.

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

Finished here too, all done and dusted at 1pm, not back until the 2nd! Another benefit of being on restricted duties and working in the office!

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

I finished at 12.30, not back til the 2nd:D

Pete is working until 6 and is back to work on Monday:(

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

I finished yesterday (10-12, yes, 2 hours with a cracking hang-over) and go back on the 5th. Today I was mostly riding the bike like a loon and finishing my shopping (taking advantage of the sales and a few contacts' generosity!).

Hope all those that are working are having an easy day.

Regards
Phil

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
 

Was at work for the morning, left at 12.30 having done naff all apart from eat mince pies. Left to get last present (town was heaving!) and then picked up a hire car that I've got til Monday (cos the starter motor decided to go on my car yesterday :mad:). Booked the cheapest, a bloody Fiat Panda, and ended up with a free upgrade to a top of the range Megane :). Now drinking Sloe Gin and watching Top Gear :cheers:

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office

Re: Christmas eve - at work/in the office
