Our staff party

While we are spending so much time looking after other people for their Christmas parties it is always good for us to be able to look forward to our own event.  We had this last Sunday evening at The Falmouth Hotel where we joined up with the teams from The Fowey and The Idle Rocks and we all had a really great time.  Greg and his team put so much effort into getting everything right and it really worked well.

The food was lovely, we had a fishcake to start, lovely and hot with a good fishy taste and a crab mayonnaise with it.  The main course had to be turkey and yes we did have sprouts too!  We went off tradition with a chocolate and orange tart for pudding, really rich and gooey, not even I would have wanted more than one of those!

After dinner the party started good and proper with a really lively disco in the main room and a fun casino in the bar.  I must admit I spent most of the evening in here, not being a natural dancer!  I discovered I have no talent for roulette either but Gail came away with a full rack of chips which she then lost on the black jack table, Jackie’s husband Paul won and lost his house twice playing black jack!  Some of the younger lads were quite entertaining with their decision making so it made for a fun time.

Some of our guys stayed over, others came back on the coach, which made for a late night but well worth it.  From my management side it is great to have the opportunity, with my colleagues and our owner, Keith, to say a big thank you to all the staff who work so hard throughout the year.

Some people always want to know the gossip from these events but all I will say here is what goes on tour stays on tour!!
