Hive Health

Last week we went to Berlin for the Christmas party. It’s because last week was so outrageous that this blog is only being written now.

Jas toiled for weeks on the plan – Bratislava? Devon? Stockholm?, Soho?  Tim’s house? Guillaume’s Circus?….

….We ended up in Berlin. Leaving Wardour Street in the morning, 18 of us piled on to the bus. 18! It’s amazing to believe what a huge family we have become in such a short space of time. All bright eyed and excited, we set out on our German mission.

Arvinder Grewal, of new found fame in channel 4′s The Family just happened to be our chauffeur – we tried to be cool, but we were all starstruck, each requesting  a signed photo.

By the afternoon we were sipping Gluhwein in the Berlin Winter Wonderland, by the evening Jas was shaking booty on the dance floor. Michael had his first night in a legitimate hotel.

It was great to have the two new Claires, Bhupi and Krystal join us for their first Hive party. And, Bhupi in particular taught us how to party – so hard – that when the alarm went off at 7 to catch the bus home, he slept straight through. And when we knocked on his door, he slept straight through, and when we rang his mobile, he slept straight through and when the hotel reception called his room phone, there was still no answer and when our Ryanair flight took off from Berlin he was still sleeping like a baby.

Awesome night. And Bhupi now knows Berlin airport like the back of his hand.

Next year we’ll head to Bognor Regis.
