Today we celebrated Christmas Jumper day at PFS with everyone in the office taking part. As you can tell from the photo, it was a lot of fun. However while these things are always enjoyable, everyone gets a bit competitive when it comes to picking the best entry. We’re pleased to announce that this years winner was Ian Pinder from our Estimation department. See a picture of Ian’s home made entry below.
