VroomVroomVroom Footy Fever

As the final whistle blows on the 2009 Football season the VroomVroomVroom office has been gripped by Footy Fever. Whether from the past AFL Grand Final or the upcoming NRL Grand Final on Sunday the team is very excited.
Something that the team is even more excited about was knocking 8 seconds of last weeks Photo Shoot. Very Impressive. Watch this space for next weeks extra special team photo shoot.

VroomVroomVroom Shenanigans

Check out your VroomVroomVroom team. Friday afternoons can be a bit silly in the office after a week of working hard. Over the last few weeks the team has played Guitar Hero World Tour ( I am not a drummer ), set up an elaborate practical joke that didn’t work and have become experts on how to microwave pop corn.

Here is the team testing out David’s new toy last Friday. Proudly displaying our VroomVroomVroom spirit. Go Team!!

Practical Jokers

Have you ever worked in an office with a practical joker??

Over the last month a certain energy has moved into the VroomVroomVroom office. There has been an increase in the amount of shredded paper in bags and desks, whispers and giggles. We have a practical joker. She will remained unnamed in this document for I fear reprisals.

Our joker has a special affinity with the paper shredder and usually leaves a trail of destruction behind.Andrew and David had a meeting one day only to come back to their bags and jackets stuffed with shredded paper.David left the office one Friday lunch to come back to his office chair now wrapped from top to bottom with cling wrap. A couple of weeks later Andrew and David were due to meet again. Our prankster and her new apprentice discussed filling the cars with Shredded paper or relocating one or both vehicles to the big shopping center down the street. So with one car relocated to a different end of the car park and the other with shredded paper stuffed in as many storage places as possible She and her apprentice sat back to wait.
Soon after the discovery of the latest prank, it was announced that “it is now on” by Andrew. As yet no reprisal strikes have been made against the prankster.Watch this space…….

Results Bridge to Brisbane


Well as promised here is the post Bridge to Brisbane blog. My fingers are one of the only parts that don’t actually hurt.

Well the day began early with the team meeting at the VroomVroomVroom offices from there we made the trek to the starting line with the other 45,000 people who had entered the race. Standing at the base of the Gateway Bridge it was amazing to watch the front runners pound their way up the first hill followed by the rest of the pack. David Andrew and Zhen decided that the run was the way to go while Jess Vijay and I chose the walk. So with the guys off and racing, us walkers had to wait until most of the runners had departed before it was our turn and then we were off. As we walked we saw the Bananas in Pyjamas and a runner in a gorilla suit and also the first blow up kids pool to finish the race. The runner in the gorilla suit was amazing considering the heat of the day. I just hope he or she finished.

After 1hour and 45mins (approx, still waiting for official results) Vijay and I finished the race the last of the VroomVroomVroom team to do so. Pleased, flushed and feeling a little sore the team then met up at Belle Epoch for a recovery breakfast.
Congratulations team we did really well.
