Come Dine With TaxAssist

So another year (to be fair only the second year) of Come Dine With TaxAssist has come to a close.

Just to give you a little bit of background so you know what on Earth I'm talking about:

Each Autumn we run Come Dine With TaxAssist.  Team members either pair up with other team members, husbands, wives, girlfriends, boyfriends or even just mates.

We then randomly draw names out of hat and the pairings are up against two other groups.

Each group hosts the other two who then score them out of ten for food, entertainment and overall how much they enjoyed the night.

This time round we had an Australian and s*%t jumper night which just happened to be on hallowe'en and therefore (obviously) involved dookin' for miniatures... obviously.

We had French Night which featured some pretty terrible French Cafe music and charades.  One of the films was Free Willy... I leave to your imagination to work out how that one was mimed out.

There was Oriental Night with some pretty fantastic cooking and finally, last week, Eighties Night.

Eighties Night involved a fair amount of plastic jewelry, espadrilles, leg warmers and Lycra!

It also featured two game shows from my youth - Bulls Eye and Play Your Cards Right!

All brilliant nights out; this year the team have really thrown themselves into the event and loads of effort was put into each evening by both the hosts and it has to be said the guests.  Amazon has done very well out of us this year.

Except for Eighties Night... Richard seemed to have most of his outfit already in his wardrobe!

So all that's left now is to announce the winners which we'll do at our Christmas Night out.

All just a bit of fun through the Autumn and in the run up to Christmas but I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who put in so much effort to make this year's event such a good one.

Onward and upward next year with even more couples taking part and more 'interesting' and varied themed nights!
