Welcome-back-to-work gifts

I got into work this morning and found a shiny new mug and pot plant on my desk – we all got welcome-back-to-work presents.
Its a nice way of making the first day back a bit more bearable (the chocolate pastries and strong coffee helped too), especially with the not quite finished office refurb still in progress.
