Forgive the non-tax related nature of this post, but as one who has been to many law firm and law school retreats, the report of this Scotland law firm retreat gone awry (via lawschool.com) caught my eye:

One of Edinburgh’s most prestigious legal firms has launched an investigation after trouble flared during a corporate weekend at a luxury timeshare development. It is believed two senior legal staff at top corporate lawyers Dickson Minto have been suspended following a fracas last weekend at the up-market Langdale resort in the Lake District…
Two senior members of the legal firm began arguing and others became involved. It is claimed by those present that during a series of incidents one male member of staff was headbutted and another punched.

And to think the most exciting thing I’ve ever done at a retreat is golf!
