She created invitations assigning each guest with a title and colour. There was Professor Lily Black, Miss Anastasia Scarlett, Countess Maija Plum, Princess Aoife Peacock, Mademoiselle Hannah Emerald and Lady Ella Grey.
The lounge room was transformed into a cluedo board. Small areas were designed to represent different rooms - library, kitchen, conservatory, study...... Murder weapons - rope, candlestick, copper pipe, dagger...were hidden in these rooms. Ella made the people, rooms and weapon cards specific to her game.

The guests, all beautifully dressed, arrived and the cluedo game began. While the girls were solving the murder, Andy and I were busy preparing the roast chicken dinner as requested. An hour passed before the game concluded and murder solved...perfect timing for the dinner to be served to the guest at the fancy decorated (by Ella) table.
Post dinner, the girls and I plunged into the next game - Unlock. An escape room type game. The girls had an hour to escape. Although they worked hard to decipher the clues, the game was too small and difficult for 6 girls to feel included. As a result, the group splintered with 4 girls desperate to complete the challenge while the other two proved to be a distraction so we called the game to a halt and opted to have dessert instead! They then spent the remaining time chatting and mucking around before parents arrived.
Another fun and memorable party!!
