Warm weather, loom bands and ice buckets – the year that was 2014!

ice-bigAs the year draws to a close we’ve been discussing some of the highlights and interesting events of the year.  It’s been a great year for Exchequer Solutions but we’ve also been reminiscing about what went on outside of work.  Here are some of our favourite or most memorable highlights of 2014.

  1. It has been the hottest and driest year on record.  This meant a summer of BBQs, picnics and beer gardens.

  3. It was the year children all over the country became totally obsessed with Frozen
  4. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt finally tied the knot
  5. Malala Yousafzai was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize
  6. The iphone6 was launched
  7. It was the year of the selfie – Ellen DeGeneres’ star-stuffed Oscar photo was retweeted more than three million times
  8. Loom bands became a national obsession, people even made dresses out of them!
  9. Scotland didn’t vote for independence so the UK remains independent
