This weekend has been fantastic! I finally turned in all my coursework on Thursday and thus began all the Christmas fun. Friday night I went to the Woking Borough Council Christmas Party (I worked at WBC until August this year and they kindly invited me to come along) which was 80s themed and loads of fun. And then last night was Andy's Christmas Do which was a black tie event in London - we cleaned up pretty well :)
And I even had my hair done! I love the curls - wish I knew how to do it myself. Ironically, she used hair
straighteners to make the curls! Friends of ours picked us up and drove us to the venue. There was a drinks reception for the first hour....
After the drinks reception we headed into the main event where we had dinner. We sat with 5 guys from Andy's team and their wives/girlfriends.
After dinner there was dancing - but Andy's not a huge fan of dancing and I'd had my fill the night before at the Council's Christmas Do, so we headed into the other room where they were doing things like massages and caricatures - we had ours done & I think you have to have a sense of humour about your more prominent features to do it. We had ours made into fridge magnets....hahaha how hilarious (and awful) are those?!?! I actually kind of love them. I look like an obnoxious talk show host and we all decided that Andy looks like he's part of the royal family :) See? A sense of humour.
