BJK&E Christmas Party!
Last night BJK&E had their 2007 Chrimbo party… We kicked off with being picked up from our offices by Rudolph and the other reindeer with sleighs -  which were really rickshaws with the drivers wearing big fluffy reindeer hats, but if you half closed your eyes it was practically the real thing.
It was a cold ride but worth it once we arrived at Hyde Park for the Winter Wonderland. After rides galore on the Glacier Simulation and the big wheel overlooking London (nicknamed by us as the London Eye’s Mini Me) we were whisked off to the Nordic Bar and Restaurant in Newman Street where a Nordic Blush Champagne cocktail greeted us followed by many warming shots of aquavit, some with salt and tomatoes – a strangely pleasing combination, pear and summerfruit cider amongst other drinks.
An ice luge with flavoured vodka was enjoyed by all who entered the singing competition and the winners received a bottle of champagne. All in all a top night was had and headaches are a plenty today.

I still think ‘Push The Button’ robbed us of our rightful singing competition win!

i was lucky enough to be in the reindeer death wish sleigh. he was lucky enough to be cycling three large bottomed ladies 5 miles after one too many mince pies. give the man a carrot.

I was very impressed with the varying vodka luge techniques going on. Although I now have a rash on my face from being stuck to it for most of the night…I’m not sure this a very professional look!!

You can’t argue with the cheerometer Emily! Also worth a mention was the mass sing off warm up and warm down, particularly the dulcet tones of Apples and Nicky, a Christmas No. 1 duet beckons…

Indeed Gareth, you cant argue with the crowd reaction. The beauty of our win was that the song was composed in 10 mad minutes. It was pretty awful mind.
