Arriving at Mercure Ardoe House Hotel, we were eagerly welcomed by the Subsea 7 team, who seemed extremely pleased the morning conference was over and to have reached the fun part of the day,  the group were in for an afternoon of Indoor Entertainment in the form of our Games Mania event.   It was a good sign that the afternoon was going to be a great fun filled and competitive event. 

Everyone was really competitive from the outset and pushed themselves throughout the Indoor Entertainment event to giving 100% in every activity.  A mention must be made to Pistol Pete whose enthusiasm on the Air Hockey table saw the game better resemble an aggressive tennis match!  Doug an Dave were the Buzz Me champions being the only two to complete the entire circuit with their closest rivals only reaching half way.  Dave also pulled his riding skills out of the bag and managed to tame the Bull, staying on for a whopping 21 seconds!

Some serious gambling went on at the blackjack table with Phil quietly steering his team in the night direction with Rick going as far as betting with his car keys and Wedding Ring!!!! Fortunately for him it was all fun play, just as well, I don't think his wife would be too pleased!

The Team Building challenge Bridge Build was the final activity of the day, it was the perfect climax to the afternoon with three out of the four teams making it across the bridge, even after some badly timed reversing from JC's B******.  Bringing up the rear despite a monumental effort all afternoon, the Chancers took home the losers wooden spoon while JC's B****** stepped up to take 3rd place and a delighted 3+3 to take 2nd place.  The crowning glory;  the golden Team Challenge Company Winner's Trophy was awarded to the Golden Rivets whose hilarious inspirational team huddles got them on the road to victory.  

A big thank you goes out to Phil and Lisa for working hard to put the day together.  The afternoon was a huge success with everyone getting involved in the interactive fun Team Building games and Indoor Entertainment activities.  A great team to work with, we all look forward to working with you again soon.
