Then there was the Ping Pong tournament.

The Final was between Team Marcus and Mike Vs Team Dev and Alex, It was a hard fought battle but Marcus and Mike were victorious becoming DSP’s Table Tennis Champions 2013.

### **Karaoke**

The night finished off with some truly awful renditions of many classic songs! The highlight of the Karaoke has to be Taynor really putting his heart and soul into every song, with some surprising dance moves as a result (Which we do have some video evidence!)

### **Movember**

Finally a mention to all our Mo Bros, who have endured hardships and trials during the month of November, to raise money. With itchy upper lips, children disowning them and reluctant partners they have suffered and persevered this month all for a good cause.

So at the Christmas party our Mo Bro Champion was finally crowned and the winner was …

## **Simon**

The Christmas Party was a great success and enjoyed by all, so I would like to thank Gill for all the hard work she put into organising it. We would also like to thank all those who came and made it a fantastic evening.
