MURDER MYSTERY AND INTRUIGE AT GALEN'S GALLERY

Sunday night and after a long and hot two days moving it was the BIGGEST night out in Chiang Mai in a long time.

Howard and Steve had put together a murder mystery party and many of our old favourites had parts including yours truly, i had the part of a Thai folk/pop star guitar and all.

The event was carefully planned and well thought out, with little to no information given to people before the event. Each was given a brief synopsis of their role and the names of characters they would interact with, but you had no clue who would play the characters.

The first arrivals were at 7pm and we had to be there and in character right on time, as the second group were to arrive at 7-30 giving half an hour to get into character. The second group were themselves, but later on some became characters i.e the detectives after the gruesome murder took place.

The part of Sri Banharn a bitchy quite manipulative gossip columnist was played by the lovely Ronny and of all people the murderer was Steve who played an amazing part of a hen pecked husband with a Lesbian wife, great job by Ms Lomax.

The setting was brilliant as i do love the vibe at Galen's gallery and since it was the launch of an exhibition of newly acquired works it worked so so well and was so much fun.

Everyone brought a pot luck dish and booze and it was a ball. I am glad to say Ronny is fine and no permanent damage has been done in the making of this epic.

If you would like to take part in the next event i will put your names forward to the organisers if you let me know.

Thanks again to Steve and Howard for all their hard work.
