THE office 'do', the stalwart of any decent company's social calender, is the subject of an exhibition opening next month.

A Bit Of A Do, at the Chester History and Heritage Centre on Bridge Street, invites visitors to step back in time to the Christmas parties and social outings of decades past.

Pictures include group shots from Chester companies like De Havilland's, the Majestic cinema, Williams & Williams and Summer's Steelworks.

Curator Elaine Pierce-Jones is keen to add more photographs to the exhibition.
If you have any memories of an office party call in to the centre at St Michael's Church or telephone 01244 402110.
