Dreaming of a white Christmas?

It's that time of year again when office Christmas parties are in full swing. With all the negative press that’s been emerging about managers being held responsible if things go wrong, it was a very brave decision by our boss to let the Mediatrack Massive loose last night!

‘White Christmas’ was the theme of this year’s bash and, rather than host the party ourselves and run the risk of clashing with all the other festivities taking place, we got together with a number of other companies at the salubrious British Empire & Commonwealth Museum in Bristol. If you haven’t managed to pay a visit, I’d definitely recommend it. We were housed inside Isambard Kingdom Brunel's 19th century railway station - apparently the world's first purpose-built passenger railway terminus with an integral link using Brunel's railway and ships to connect London with Britain’s overseas colonies and America. But enough of the history, let’s get back to the subject in hand…

Once inside, the venue had been transformed into a Winter Wonderland. We began with après ski in the Ski Lodge, followed by a delicious three course meal (how they managed such fine dining for 500+ people I will never know), all topped off with a white Belgian chocolate fountain. If that wasn’t enough, ‘sexy santas’, casinos, live music, and the all-important dance floor meant there was something for everyone. Apparently the photos will be coming soon – watch this space…

Naturally, the ‘skeleton crew’ in the office this morning are nursing sore heads (whose idea was the tequila?!), and are still somewhat disturbed by the lasting image of our great leader wrapped up in that white feather boa…
