Qualcomm's New Office Party, Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge - 3rd July 2006
Qualcomm Cambridge moves from its offices of five years, on the mini Police State that is Cambridge Business Park, into shiny new accomodation on Cambridge Science Park. After a week of moving crates around and watching the rabbits on the grass outside the new building, an office warming party is held, featuring some pretty good nosh and a seemingly bottomless supply of Leffe and champagne. By around 8pm, only the beer-drinking hardcore remain, where we partake in squeaky-voice merriment courtesy of helium-filled balloons, feed prawn crackers to the moorhens, and have a bit of a poke around on the roof.

James the IT guy
Isobe's dropped some beer
The queue for champagne
Nick helps out by opening Champagne
Tim Simpson does a speech
Hani gets a Qualstar
Isobel holds a glass
Sangheetha, Janet, Zoe, Isobel, Lucy - the 5k gang
The party is in effect
The caterer in the kitchen
The food guy stirs stuff in a massive wok
Nosher's got noodles on chopsticks
Chatting and mingling
Meanwhile, Julian ties his shoe laces
Steve, James and John Scott
Outside, Qualcomm staffers mill around
A pigeon on the roof
A Moorhen chick stomps about
Round the back of the new offices
Hani looks unsure
Geese on the Science Park lake
Nick scratches his head
Steve H does a self-portrait
Dan slurps a glass of red wine
Louise, Janet and Isobel
Leon with balloons
Breating helium for squeaky-voice fun
Andrew has a go
Andrew breathes helium
James W tries helium snorting
Birds like wires
Shiny plumbing in the roof
Francis and Louise up on the building's roof
Isobel peers over the top
We scope out every corner of our new pad
Louise investigates the plant room
Isobel comes back down with beer in hand
Leon reveals a secret stash of Champagne
Isobel with some overflowing champagne
Isobel does the pouring honours
The ice bucket gets tipped over
Andrew and a suprised-looking Isobel help tidy up
An array of empty bottles in the kitchen
