''He's making a list, he's checking it twice, He's gonna find out who's naughty or nice...Santa Claus is coming to town...' The Birmingham Assay Office team must have been good this year as Santa Claus stopped by to pay them a visit! His first stop was The Laboratory for a lunch time festive feast prepared by the staff, rumour has it he love's a good samosa! His day wasn't over though as after a pre meal snooze he was soon wide awake and enjoying a sherry (well a couple of pints and a plate of chips!) with the AnchorCert Gemmological Laboratory and The Birmingham Assay Office Sales and Marketing team. His assistant, Secret Santa Sophie, handed out Secret Santa prezzies for all the good boys and girls. One of the best prezzies had to be Marketing Manager Penny Parkes One Direction sticker book, look how thrilled she is with her present!!

Definitely some favouritism going on here![/caption] [caption id="attachment_7277" align="aligncenter" width="384"] Carla Goodfellow and Anu Manchanda (AnchorCert) couldn't wait to open their presents[/caption] [caption id="" align="alignnone" width="448"] Santa finished off the night with a Baileys cappucino - Delicious[/caption] Happy Christmas from The Birmingham Assay Office!
