Human Remains on Tour

A lot has happened in the world of People Services at Blind Veterans in the last two years and the time had come for us to all be in the same room for some bonding and planning so the southerners took to the road (or rail) to Cymru with their onesies.
We spent two days working on our People Services strategy and our management and operational plans  but as you can see it we managed to find a bit of time for fun too.
We don't always dress like this, it was Wear Your Onesie to Work Week to raise funds for Blind Veterans and we are never slow to engage in an opportunity for dressing up.  I do hope the bees were not traumatised by their visit from this group  of wolves, giraffe, various cats, pandas and mice.

We followed up the woodland walk down to the bee hives with a raging agreement about the venue for our Christmas lunch and selections for the Secret Santa followed by a game of Who Am I.  Even without the lubrication of alcohol it was a lot more fun than it looks in this picture.  Andrew Lloyd-Webber locking horns with Robin Hood while Ghengis Khan and James Bond look on.




Our colleagues in Wales put on a crystal maze tournament of archery, darts, pool, quiz, mosaic making and creative cheer leading.  Its amazing that we had time for any serious work.  Each one of us is now the proud owner of a mosaic coaster to remind us of a great event.  We certainly lived up to the idea that if your job is not fun, you're doing it wrong.  Looking forward to the next one.
