Sherlock Holmes dinner

[Vampyre Master]

Greetings
Here's a couple of photos of our Sherlock Holmes dinner, it was held in the Houses of Parliament.
One of our members is an MP so we get to use the members dinning room, hence the Commons green leather (Lord's is red).
Jenny made her own outfit plus a small Victorian cape, I was wearing a vintage tail coat, shirt and bow tie.

What utter fun! Looks like a pretty not so bad place to hang out.
A far cry from Otto's Shrunken Head on the lower east side of Manhattan, where some of us New Yorkers entertained Fleur de Guerre, from the UK, last night. Got any more pics? Were there any activities? Any group sleuthing? People portraying specific characters? Readings?

What a great idea!! I wish the game were afoot on this side of the pond.
