The MOO Blog
Parties, pies… Quiet please!
Nobody shout. It’s Friday, and really, who doesn’t need a little peace and quiet on a Friday? ESPECIALLY AFTER OUR PARTY! Ouch. We had fun! And from the great photos we’ve seen, so did you. Thanks to everyone for coming along last night, it was fantastic to see so many of you. After a hectic last-minute change of venue, we were all a little worried. But you can’t keep a good MOOster down, and everyone made it there – and made it great.
We had Stickers, as modelled by the ever handsome MOO interns, Jake and Angel. They’re photographed here by Alicia, but please, all future model bookings should come via me…
We had balloons, as beautifully shot by _sarchi
Postman Pat came along too – Alex took this photo. Pat was delivering MOO orders, placed by party people earlier this week.
There were bowler hats, like this one, modelled by Meg Pickard, and shot by Richard.
Some of which were cunningly customised-on-the-go, like this one, shot by tommyajohansson
Each bowler hat had a sticker inside – if you found a black and white cat, you won a prize! If you found the stray ginger cat, then the boobie prize was yours… Well, we say boobie prize, but really, who wouldn’t want a signed photo of Iain, our lovely project manager? On reflection, maybe the lovely lady who won it…
We had food – or so I hear. Look at these people! ‘Twas gone in a flash! This photo is by Annie Mole
and this, of the aftermath by M.J.S.
It was pretty hot inside, so lots of people headed for the ouside space – and partied from light:

And a tiny PS: look what happened today… the lunch company totally got our order wrong. We were supposed to have 29 pies for lunch, and we got…
Sixty! Sixty pies. Which makes a very happy MOO Crew:
(Thanks to blackbeltjones for the photo of Richard.)

Thanks again for coming – and have a great weekend!
Why was the stray ginger cat the booby prize?
The stray I get, but ginger? Leave us gingers be!
@Ben – I hear ya. As a fellow ginge, I was a little distressed too. But you know what these ‘mousey’ haired types are. It was their idea – I think they wanted to feel all superior, rather than boring, for a change ;o)
I found a black and white one

We’ve added our own video on the evening here that you are welcome to watch. Look out for Pat!

When’s the next party? And how do I get on the invite list?
@Krista – not sure yet – but everyone is always invited, no list :)
Pass one of those extra pies this way:-)
Are you going to release the party stickers on MOO>?
@Jo C – yes! Literally just making them now, they should be available as a MOO design very soon!
Who ate all the pies?
@Gareth – we all did. Then everyone took extras home for the weekend too
