what was the PR spin on that morbs
a necessary and planned downsize/de leverage that was anticipated and positive, anyhow we do not comment on personal circumstances.

I have had to many. Bonus of being a project manager is that I am on a few teams & have to sign off the bill (conflict of interest alert!)
Was at Room restaurant on Wed, San Carlo on Fri & Bluu Bar week before (all manc).
Have put on about 5 stone tho!

We had the room upstairs but not top floor. it did seem small but ended up being just the right size and could have anything from the bar which was a touch.think there were about 50 ppl or so

Free three course meal and free bar for 3 hours at local bar / restaurant (with skittles alley). Daddy treats his staff well, and I've been doing my usual Christmas party tactic of challenging everyone to how much they can drink etc. and therefore come party time, everyone buys you drinks !! Magical, has worked extremely well at previous companies.

Yeah - "get away from my champagne - its mine all mine"
Mine & Mrs Jam's parties were both on the same night so.....
....last night I had the pleasure of Mini Jam II refusing to go to sleep, followed by Mini Jam I jumping into bed with me at 3am, headbutting me on the way in. He kindly backfisted me in the face at 7am as he flailed his arms across in a mega-yawn...
Mrs Jam rolled in at 10am with partial hangover that has worsened throughout the day...
Merry Fckukn Christmas!

All champagne is banned now where I work...not that I ever saw any of it anyway. I have a lunchtime meal with my team planned and then a bigger departmental party on Friday in London in the day time, I have been volunteered to dress as rudolf and give out the secret santa presents!

Dinner at the Four Seasons Aviara with a free room and spa service.
Ours is wednesday, having to drag my ass out of home on my day off to go into town for a bar crawl starting off a the slug and lettace weeeeee... and waste loads of money. From one year massive themed nights out with hundreds in halls to a couple of people in the pub with £25 a head. Sucks!!! I also ain't going to get any bonus in march which i usually get 10% of my annual salary.
Urggh!! why do some people insist on doing this and then get everyone else involved even when those other people couldn't think of anything worse.they are doing Secret Santa tho
