haha Dave xmas parties will do that to you

I've got mine in 2 weeks today, looking forward to it. We'll be on the floating restaurant at Darling Harbour in Sydney.. should be lotsa fun.

Last years was the most disappointing xmas party i've ever been to, cause i've been to some pretty good ones.. The company had us lined up to go to some park at North Ryde but it was raining that day, so we had to have our xmas party in an underground carpark at Lane Cove. Veeery disappointing.

Hopefully they'll make up for it this year!

Its always the way, couple of weeks ago I had to go to a wedding for some friends, wouldn't you know it; that very night was so clear and it was the first and last time for two weeks either side of that night. You gotta laugh.

hey iceman, how was that christmas party eh? ours was in darling harbour too, at a thai resturant called thai-phoon. food was meagre and overpriced and we had to pay for it ourselves
but the upside was that ours was during the day so from 12 onwards, everyone was in party mode.
