I used a pic of an elaborate gingerbread scene with candles etc. Logged off and didn't realise that wouldn't reset background to default. First meeting with the big boss after Xmas to discuss my team's performance. Clicked on the link, said a serious hello and offered to screenshare a data report as audio connected before video and i popped up on screen with a bloody festive scene behind me like the data elf.

This morning I went to charge my kindle and instead found myself trying to charge my coffee mug. It was my third coffee of the day as well, clearly not strong enough!
