Tis the season...

2008-12-10T13:56:00.002Z

Here at EQ, we are an environmentally conscious bunch.

That's why we decided to forgo the usual paper based greetings this year and send a 'tree friendly' christmas e-card instead.

So after only 140 man-hours, 2,500,000 kilowatts of electricity, 5 carbon-footprint busting location shoots around the globe and the use of numerous endangered creatures for target practice, here is our Magnum Opus - let us know what you think!!

Hope you enjoy and remember 'Lego' is not for life, just Christmas!
