BRS-Fest
My department (BRS) sort of prides itself on being just everso slightly less square than the rest of the firm (although whether this is difficult is a separate subject).
To prove it, a bunch of people arranged "BRS-Fest", which was (essentially) a rock festival held in the office. It involved hiring lighting, a gantry and a giant screen for the central courtyard of our building, plus numerous giant screens for the "secondary arenas" in the meeting rooms on the ground floor, playing rock videos and forcing us to drink Veuve Clicquot (not sure how rock'n'roll the last bit is, but the excuse was that it was only served in the VIP area. Unless you knew the people who arranged it). They also had proper gig tickets and wrist bands made up for the occasion, because us accountants are nothing if not thorough...

This has to be a leg-pull, surely? The words enjoyment, fun etc seem to be absent from this posting. Did you groove the early evening away to Cliff's greatest hit? Val Doonican? No, surely not...... Andy Williams????
And what does BRS stand for?
