Rockin around the Christmas Tree at the Geckoella Hop

Rockin’ around the Christmas tree

At the Geckoella hop

Taking a break from bat surveys

catching up on the Christmas shop

Rockin’ around the Christmas tree

Let the Christmas spirit ring

Later we’ll be on a night survey

And we’ll do some bat counting

You will get a sentimental feeling when you hear

Andy singing, let’s be jolly

whilst Josh identifies the boughs of holly

Rockin’ around the Christmas tree

Have a happy holiday

Everyone dancin’ merrily

In the en-viron-mental way!

As a celebration of the team’s hard work this year’s Christmas Party (hop) was thankfully taken in the skittle alley of The Lamb in Axbridge. The rounds of Skittles (including a brutal couple of games of Killer) were taken very seriously and enjoyed nearly as much as the fine Christmas dinner we were served. Congratulations to Joshua Butterworth and Jamie Foster who proved themselves to be supreme champions. Thank you to the staff at The Lamb for looking after us and thanks to those kind designated drivers who did an excellent job driving us home safely as Storm Darragh started to make itself known.
