My sister booked a cottage in North Wales for us all to have one big family holiday. Well, I say cottage, but it’s more like a mansion. It’s an amazing house just south of Blaenau Ffestiniog.
We just had to take advantage of the beautiful surrounding and host a murder mystery dinner party…
The setting was the SS Titanium.
The SS Titanium has launched from New York on its maiden voyage and the specially invited passengers prepare to celebrate. But, before the first cork can be popped, disaster strikes. Captain E Slost is found overboard, floating on an iceberg with a bullet in his chest!
OK, nothing to do with North Wales, or mountains, but the house was a perfect setting for a dinner party.
The guests included:
- PRINCE TON-AKADAMEE – Rich Arab (educated and wealthy his investments are stealthy)
- WILLETT FLY – Plane designer (he can’t keep anything up for 30 seconds!)
- EMILY AIRHEAD – Adventurer (she’s flying planes and hanging from trains!)
- HAGATHA TWISTY – Mystery writer (only a criminal could plot this well!)
- FARLEY HATPIN – Silent film director (…!)
- DR HEINRICH MANOEUVRE – Austrian doctor (if you start to choke, he’s one handy bloke!)
- IZZY GONYETT – Wealthy widow (the weaker the pulse the more she’ll convulse!)
- FANNY SHAKER – Showgirl (she’ll shake her thing for a small shot of gin!)
Everyone took their parts very seriously, and came appropriately dressed in character. It was a great night, and lots of wine was drunk. I won’t give away who the murderer was, but as usual, we all had motives!

Why didn’t you do the mystery on the railway? It would have been quite a challenge on narrow gauge 😆
Fabulous costumes! Well done.
Hope you are having a great time.
