The Village

Those professionals lucky enough to work at the Financial Services Authority were thanked for their hard work over the millennium weekend by being given the opportunity to spend the festivities in luxurious hotel suites overlooking London's Thames. Arguably, they had the best views of the so-called "River of Fire' fireworks display blazing along the Thames, with top-notch room service providing the champagne. There was just one snag. They were actually ensconced in the FSA's millennium control centre – with little opportunity to appreciate their employer's generosity. Rumour has it they were a little millennium-bugged about missing the spectacle.
