The senior management team took part in their own version of the Great British Bake Off with each of the 6 senior managers bringing in [preferably homemade] mince pies for a blind tasting that was judged by the staff. My boss, Paula, was runner up for her "homemade" pies (they may have been homemade, but I'm pretty sure not by her!) and it was our MD who came first ...
Congratulations David!
We had a Christmas themed trivia quiz in which staff were grouped into teams of 5 or 6 and had answer 20 questions about all things Christmassy! The team I was in came joint third. Kudos!
We also had a homemade Christmas hat competition and the entries were all really impressive!
Cute little Santa hat ...
Gingerbread house inspired hat, complete with working lights ...
Jingle bell covered hat ...
Rudolph and Christmas tree hats ...
Tinsel and bauble crown ...
(oooppps, this is a bit more blurry than I thought - sorry!)
And a Christmas pudding hat, alongside the Grinchiest Santa ever ...
Then there was my not-so-little chimney hat, complete with fake snow, presents (at the very top) and pom-pom reindeer on the brim ...
I had no idea there were so many creative people at my company! Here's a group shot of everyone that took part, wearing their own homemade creations ...
The overall winner of the competition and now proud owner of the brilliantly ugly Christmas jumper prize was [insert drum roll here] ... Andy and his Christmas pudding hat ...
Congratulations Andy!!!
It was a really fun afternoon and probably one of the best Christmas lunches we've had in a while. But without a doubt, the funniest moment of the day came when my colleague, Hayley, tried on the winning hat ...
and did a little shoulder shimmy dance ...
Just think of the episode of Friends where Monica puts the turkey on her head and you'll get the general idea!

The pudding hat was a worthy winner but I did like your reindeer pompoms!
