Today's blip is my wee little USB Christmas tree which sits on my desk at work. It's too cute and a bit of a distraction - I might have to bring it home soon!

Tonight was my team's Christmas night out - well, actually it was more of an afternoon and evening out. I couldn't last the pace: the drink started flowing mid afternoon and by 7.30 my shameful tolerance for alcohol was getting the better of me so I bailed for the train home.

On the plus side there's no drunken idiots on the train or at the taxi rank at that time so it was a nice hassle free journey home :)
