Ok, so on Saturday 4th November Christine held a murder mystery for her 20th birthday. It was so much fun.
The story was that we were all dinner guests of Sam Shady, a private detective. He was shot in the garden and, of course, all of us were suspects in his murder.
The cast list was:

Mandy Seever (me) : femme fatale (hahahaha!), married to Al DaBone but unfaithful. Sam was blackmailing me.

Jimmy Open (Andy): small time crook, Sam's long lost brother but Sam wanted to keep him a secret.

Suso Shady (Kerry): Sam's chinese wife, he had been cheating on her

Dick Lacey (Findlay): also a private detective and therefore Sam's rival, was losing out to Sam. His secretary was sending work Sam's way.

Lucy Loveless (Esther): Dick Lacey's secretary, having an affair with Sam and pregnant with his child.

Al DaBone (Phil): 'Pet Shop' owner, being investigated by Sam Shady, running illegal businesses and having an affair with Lady Faddington

Lady Faddington (Christine): famous actress but secret alcoholic

Bobby (Bobbi) Cuffs (Julie): police officer, was a bit crooked.

Gemma was also there and was sharing Christine's character. It didn't really work out but it was really nice to see her cos I only tend to see her once a year on Christine's birthday!

So we went through the rounds where different things are revealed and ate a lovely meal. It was great fun! We also had a few fireworks in the garden which gave me the opportunity to wear the fur cape that was part of my costume. Whether you disagree with fur or not, it was very 1930s so don't shout at me! Phil was in charge of lighting the fireworks - a fact that scared me to the very core but actually it went without a hitch thankfully!
Maybe I'll leave you to guess who the murderer was.....
