Most of these girls on on the Gift Team with me. The girl in the red with the gold tinsel around her neck is Jaclyn and she's from Boston. My only American friend at work.

After the party was underway and we'd all eaten our delicious lunch, the Reed Exhibitions costume party began. This year, the 1st prize winner won a trip for 2 to Auckland, New Zealand including flight and accommodation. It was a tempting prize so lots of people dressed up and were in it to win it....including me. I dressed up as Santa Claus exhibiting at one of Reed's Gift Fairs. I had the stand, products for display, and costume and I REALLY went all out. Unfortunately, I came in 2nd place to the Gingerbread Girl who also made her costume from scratch. I still think I should have won.... Here are some pictures of the costumes:
Elf, Snowflake(??), not sure, and Mrs. Claus
From left to right: an Advent Calendar, Mary (she's really pregnant), a Christmas Issue of Milieu which is our Gift Team catalogue, and Elf, Christmas Turkey, and a Sexy Elf.
Nicole and Rebecca (my manager)
The first place winner and a bitter subject for me! Gingerbread Girl
And here was mine!

Even second place can still have a good time.
