    Well, I want to try to avoid the awkwardness of us both turning up dressed the same, so do I need to go shopping for a new shirt?

    Unfortunately the santawear I have ordered for this year (much more tasteful) hasn't arrived yet so not sure whether to give the monstrosity another outing. Assuming it still fits of course

      Well I'm in last year's teeshirt. Cost me 4.99 so I'll be in it for the next 10 Xmas do's at least.

      Erm.. What's this 'more' tasteful?

      Am gonna laugh if we've got a collective income of over 1.2 million p/a and we are all wearing the same as last year. Bloody contractors.

          It'll be the same as 2014 in my case - wasn't there last year...

                Too busy invoicing to go shopping. I had good intentions, but have run out of time.

                  Sounds like poor prioritisation to me

                    That's what tomorrow is for and I'm invoicing at the same time.

                    London noonish go shopping, coffee, check into hotel and then hit the pub

                      I won't be making an effort as usual I do have a Christmas jumper though, I will see if it has any Xmas stains on it this evening, it might be fit for wearing tomorrow. Will be SS shopping at lunch time tomorrow at the office before shooting home to get the slow train into Marylebone. Will try and get there for 6'ish. Won't be staying too late though as last train back is 00:15 I think and if I miss that I am fecked. I am sure we will be able to imbibe the required bar bill by then though!
