No Counting House this year?
EDIT: just seen the thread in Social
Failing that, ship and shovell will let us have their room (I'm waiting for them to get back to me on min spend) but they can only do a pre-ordered buffet. (which I keep wanting to type as bugger!)
Not sure which is better - food at CH better, but a separate room gives us the privacy to indulge in a snowball fight or a little light bondage if the mood so takes usComment

You could have picked the permies up off the floor. I reckon they were wondering how much we're paying this guy vs how much he delivers - not necessarily a comfortable path to start down...
Could get a nice Mondeo for that.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
