Going Italian

The bar, previously best known for its dartboard, pool table and… er… bar, has been converted into an Italian restaurant for the evening, thus:

This is for our daughter’s birthday party: a murder mystery set in… an Italian restaurant: Bella Morte’s.

The photo above, taken with the lights on and during daylight hours, doesn’t really do the scene justice. It was be much cosier and more atmospheric this evening when it’s dark out, and – thanks to loadshedding – dark in as well. The candles aren’t there just to look pretty.

The actual birthday is tomorrow, but we have a very busy and exciting few days ahead, so we’re getting this one in a bit early, and we’re all very much looking forward to it. I would let you know whodunnit, but no-one knows yet, including the host and local police chief Inspectore di Formaggio (that’s me).

It could all go horribly wrong, but even if it does, it’ll still be an awesome evening.
