We had a barbecue today. And although it was cold and windy and almost (though not quite) raining, everyone stood outside eating their food, despite the easy availability of plenty of comfortable indoor seats. Why? Even the Germans and Americans among us stayed outside, presumably as a result of misguided peer pressure. Still, I think it probably achieved some kind of team bonding. Important, at the last meeting of the year.

Oh well. There was very yummy food and nice people, one of whom asked if I was going to blog about it. Always happy to oblige!
