2. Online pub quiz
You just need to decide who is going to play quizmaster and a theme for your quiz. The quizmaster can make the questions beforehand or to save time choose from pre-made quizzes via Kahoot so the host can participate too. Then just
schedule a time, share the Kahoot code and get cracking.

3. A Christmas Movie marathon

your favourite is!

4. Decorate your desk
