It seems a long time since our action-packed company away day, so we decided to arrange a team outing to spend some time together out of the office. Rather than our usual team-building bootcamps and group spa days, this time we decided to go for something a little more retro!
So off we headed to Hollywood Bowl and after a well-deserved pint each, we made our way (in our very fashionable shoes) to the lanes. Splitting into two groups, our team captains were the über competitive, Rich and Mike.
All determined to win, TK’s competitive streak reared its ugly head once again and we began a bowling battle – Mike, Carl, Tess, Leanne B and Gina against Rich, Emma, Nicole, Paul, Olivia and Jenny. None of us are particularly experienced bowlers; there were several falls, a few paddies and one of us (not naming any names!) had to resort to using the frame. Nevertheless, we scored a few strikes between us resulting in high fives all round.
After a tough first game, Rich’s team were leading on points, much to Mike’s annoyance. But for the second game, team ‘Mike the Strike’ pulled it out of the bag resulting in an impressive draw and lots of happy faces.
