Current Weather at Strickley

An night to remember

Last night the Lakeland department that is like no other (but as one of us says "unique is good") met up at Strickley for a retirement/Christmas/Winter Solstice/birthday party. Much food and drink was consumed (but there's a bit left for dinner today) and no other entertainment was necessary to ensure we all had a good time. We even had a visit from Father Christmas with a sack full of presents.

The evening started off in true Comp. Ops. style with someone having to dial into work to follow up a problem. And ended in what could have been spectacular fashion when the earth moved - except we never felt it. No damage was done here, but over at Wellbank two baubles fell off the tree and down the yard the cows mooed a bit.

Today it's washing up and then back to work! In the words of a well known saying - "It's not over till the fat lady sings" - so get your earplugs ready for Friday!
