You can't imagine how happy I was to walk out of the office this afternoon knowing I wont be back until the 2nd Jan!!! I feel absolutely drained and knackered, but so happy!
The week didn't go too badly. I went to the departmental Xmas do on Wednesday - skating in Hyde Park followed by dinner. Pleased to report, no injuries following the skating. Actually, I was pretty pleased with myself as I hadn't skated since I was 10 years old and I didn't fall. PLUS, I didn't hang on to the side either! Have to admit though, the boots were awful. We were all in absolute pain. After 15 minutes couldn't take it anymore so 3 of us decided to find the mulled wine. (Tip: if you have mulled wine that's a bit ropey - put a slug of sloe gin in and it makes it yummy).
Yesterday and today we dropped our "professionalism" and had 80's music playing. The funny thing was, most of the songs we were singing along to, I wouldn't have been seen dead singing along to back in the 80's. But it was fun and at the end of the day today we had some champagne before we all went our merry little ways. So, now I'm just looking forward to relaxing! I am now a very happy woman!!
