So I went to my first masquerade in London last night! My company put on their annual christmas 'do', this one with a masquerade theme. Of course I was super chuffed (aka pumped) to find a great mask on ebay that I could wear. I got ready at work with the HR girls and then we headed to the party. There is a new hire in HR (above) who is also Astrid, and she is awesome so I don't mind sharing my name with her. It is certainly confusing for everyone though!When we showed up at the club it was super packed, but everyone was joyous. Of course with free drinks all night who wouldn't be? Most people were wearing their masks on top of their heads (right from the get go!) but I made a point of keeping mine on for the first 2 hours.
It was awesome to see people kick back and be themselves. There were mini-scandals going on in corners due to co-workers 'snogging' (making out), which totally added to the entertainment. I closed the bar and took the night bus home, that was conveniently located right outside our bar at trafalgar square. ;o)
