The GNS Brighton teams always know how to party - so what way to celebrate the festive season than bringing a large group of people together, glamourishly dressed to toast the season...and everyone having a ball of a time! 'Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la, la la la la.....

Snow was predicted - but boy did it come down. It started early on Tuesday, 30th Nov with about 10cm settling on the ground. During the following 48hrs another 20cm fell - making it just over a foot of snow. Yep this meant I was well and truly snowed in! Nice!

Sun, 05 Sep 2010 14:29:33 +0000

We had a Work-Life (or it has recently been termed as Life-Work) balance afternoon fun! A picnic in the park with some fun and games to support. Remember work-life balance is meant to represent a broad concept including proper prioritisation between "work" (career and ambition) on one hand and "life" (pleasure, leisure and family) on the other...!

A mid-year team meeting can only be followed by...no not Guinness (well not straightaway!), but a luvly team build. The team decided to do a Community Team Build at a National Trust site just outside of Brighton on the South Downs. Luvly weather (just!), luvly packed lunch on the Downs, great fence repairs and bush-clearing...and then off to a nice meal in Royal Oak in Poynings. Nicely done team...oh and there was Guinness in the Evening! Well it's hard grafting this outdoor activity malarkey!

G1 Team Build (23rd July 2010)

Tue, 27 Jul 2010 19:15:15 +0000

One of the GNS business team's held a Team Build, and invited a number of support groups to also join them and ergh..."bet"...(celebrate) the joys of relationship and partnership. So here goes...after a few drinks (well we did meet up at the pub at Ascot), we had a nice few hours at the Ascot Racecourse! Coincidently, there was a few horse races too during the afternoon!

Softball (aka Rounders) fun - 14th July 2010

Wed, 14 Jul 2010 20:54:15 +0000

Well working for Amex, is not all work-work-work...it involves a bit of fun and enjoyment too. It's the simplest of games that seems to entertain the majority, so although the GNS work-life outside fun day (afternoon) was called off due to the unpredictable weather (it's not like it's mid-July or anything! Classic English summer weather), the Telecom House fun-evening remained, and it was sunny, rained and sunny again - but we persevered - with a BBQ, soft-ball and some healthy living exercises! Great hey? :)

Dark Star Brewery Tour (9th July 2010)

Fri, 09 Jul 2010 22:30:43 +0000

A spontaneous extended invitation, and a marvellous evening drive and session at a mysteriously located Brewery. Dark Star had some very nice Ales and Bitters - yummy indeedy --> http://www.darkstarbrewing.co.uk - give it a go, you will be pleasantly surprised :)

Haha! Delicious all the same :)
