Festive revellers stumbled out of bars and pubs dressed as Santa and his elves as Christmas party season swept the nation this weekend.
Celebrating the Yuletide with your colleagues, over a glass of cherry or two, is as traditional as roast turkey and the Queen's speech for us Brits.
And as the big day approached, people pulled on their Christmas jumpers, found the silliest costumes they could find and headed out for a night on the town.
Smiling party-goers were spotted enjoying themselves in Newcastle and Birmingham on on Friday and Saturday, with many happy to pose for pictures as they painted the town a Christmas red.
After a long night of dancing to festive hits, many looked slightly worst for wear as they walked arm-in-arm with friends or tucked into a late night snack on their way home.
While others were happy to play-fight, take a bike ride or even celebrate the holiday season was a little peck or hug with a friend.
