Christmas freebies at work

Discussion in 'UK Motorcycles' started by The Older Gentleman, Dec 17, 2004.

  1. Ok, as last year:

    What's the ukrm tally?

    I got a bottle of nice Argie white, a ditto of Chilean red, and a couple
    of bottles of what looks like nice Aussie plonk.

    Plus a travel alarm clock and the inevitable diaries. That's it, unless
    something turns up between now and the 24th.

    (Outgoing gifts comprised three bottles of wine, three boxes of liqueur
    choccies, three chocolate bishops (don't ask), two bottles of champagne
    and a bottle of over-proof rum, so I've got a debit balance, as it were)

  6. A corporate hospitality policy that says you are not allowed to accept
    any presents, invites to events or even have a meal purchased for you if
    there could be even the slightest possibility that anyone could accuse
    you of being unduly influenced as a result of having said meal bought
    for you.

    3 nice bottles of Red.
    One bottle of whiskey.
    About 10 boxes of chocolate (Mainly miniature heroes, celebrations and a few
    boxes of Belgian)
    Book on the history of motorcycles.
    Golf balls
    Socks
    Pen
    A really nice one was a book that I recommended to a pupil, he told me it
    was out of print.
    Then when I started reading it to the class, he opened up his own copy.

    Next week there'll be the Christmas hamper and the drinkies.

    The Older Gentleman secured a place in history by writing:
    One bottle claret, one broken remote-controlled vehicle, one ticket to
    Twickers. A better haul than last year.
