Tonight was the annual Christmas Party at Framestore. At first I wasn't planning on going, because I had heard it was a "dress-up" party. I did bring a nice pair of pants, but I didn't really feel like going to a fancy party.
But then I heard that the "dress-up" part actually involves costumes and a contest and that many people just "come as they are". So I decided to just go as me.
The theme was "Metallic". Many people wore tinfoil hats to ward off any spying from the government. There were many shiny dresses. James wore a sequined vest. There were also a lot of shiny ties. But the person who made the full on robot costume out of cardboard and tinfoil got my vote for the best costume. I just showed my wedding ring if anyone asked where my metal was.
The party was held at a club in Leicester Square called "Sound". And there was a lot of it. I could hardly hear anyone I was talking to and my voice was getting hoarse trying to be heard. I guess these kinds of parties aren't really my thing. I got to see some of the guys that have moved to other shows, but I would have enjoyed having lunch with them much more.
I'm not sure there's any point in calling it a "Christmas" party, other than it's about a week before Christmas. But that's the only connection to Christmas I could see.
Ah well. I went, made my appearance, and came home.
