Well we had a big internal launch for a project I'm working on (available soon from all good process engineering stores near you!) and the traditional thing to do to keep all the sales people sweet is to take them on an activity eveningso last night in sub zero temperatures we went Pony cart trotting/harness racing! I'm sure theres some technical Swedish name for it but erm I don't know it
We were basically in little carts pulled along by Shetland ponies and had to race each other! It Twas most ace! My horse (Helda) was fast so we had to start from the backwe didn't come last but I only discovered the magic word to make her go faster after three quarters of the race was over (If you're ever in Stockholm and go horse cart buggy racing, and Helda is your horse, simply make the "Pssst" sound and he trots like a good un!)
Afterwards we had a bbq in a garage/shedodd but good as the wine flowed and today I'm hungover to hellI'm actually feeling worse than I was first thing this morningI think I may have still been drunk, which explains the witty banter I was dishing out during my part of the launch project! (Tip: Its always fun to make salespeople do practical type things when they've been sat around being preached too for a folligon hoursIts even more amusing to make them do it whilst tied and hungover and then tell them it's a competition and its against the clockpeople soon perk up!)
Its all over now, so after two days I can finally stop being nice to people who are boring/dull/annoyingYippee!!
*Pulls on grumpy hangover jacket and Scowls*
I'm off to eat some ben and jerrys ice cream cos Its good hangover food!
