On Friday night, IBM Father Christmas visited the IBM Clubhouse. He’s not THE Father Christmas, he’s special. We wandered through his magical grotto after checking in with his elves. The Christmas village was beautiful. Every year I vow to start one of our own. We met the jolly man, who gave us a mosaic…
