Default Chrimbly office parties

Mines tonight...

Its a bit weird this year as I'm more well known I'm gonna have to be on my best behavior..

Its quite a posh doo with overrated food and a bar that isnt a bar but charges 3.50 pint (can emptied into a glass, how festival)

i will be broke, in pain and worse for wear, anyone else got one to go to?

Crimbly Wishes

Mine's 15th Jan

No idea what it'll be like, but apparently, EVERYONE there. So should be a great laugh! Oh I wish I said that seriously.

Well I was invited to the Chrismas do for where I am working - Black Tie, very posh - at THIS hotel.

Will instead be at the Soho Massive bash, having loads of fun and no black tie

Hey I can do posh - social chameleon me

Besides one of the reasons I love working in jobs with no dress code is that most people that know me only ever see me in t-shirts and jeans so when I DO pull out all the stops its funny to see their faces

Will be pulling out some of the stops for tonight anyway - for all stops out see www.chaoscrypt.com/kilt/group.jpg has an example :P

Oh and BTW everyone - the guy on the extreme left of the pic is Peridotite on here - still need to get him to sort out his license and go collect his Red Curvy.......

I didn't go to mine this year, it was going to be rubbish so I went out with people I like But last year... Oh, last year was special, because I'd just changed jobs. All the good bits of a christmas night out, without any of the aftermath. I made my old boss cry. A lesser man might feel a twinge of guilt about that, but not me It was a great night.

I hate work christmass do's. Mine was on Tuesday but had a perfect reason for not attending - I had/have flu.

You can call me a humbug I don't care!

I didnt go to our main office party as it was fancy dress and I hate that kind of thing. But we had our departmental party last night. Even the head of department turned up, he was gracious to put his credit card behind the bar and bought everybody a few rounds of drinks. I had several and today I am paying the price for drinking so much Christmas Spirit
