Fancy Dress Competition

Good afternoon everyone!

Group 11 thought that we would brighten up our day today.  We had a strict dress code for our team meeting and all adhered to it beautifully.

 We’d love to see you guys (and your families) in fancy dress.  It will be a competition so please email me your entries and we will choose a winner.

The prize may just be bragging rights but it will cheer us all up.  I will collate the entries and put them on the blog.  kirsty.reid@westlothian.org.uk

Closing date: Friday 15 May

Have fun!
