But that’s the sort of thing Aunty Ant and her team get up to, when I’m not paying attention. Sigh.

Sherlock: The Game Is Now – Time Run – London
Lockdown sucks – it’s hard to get motivated writing about fabulous Escape Rooms when it seems like an age before we can play again. So, cheering myself up by reviewing one of our favourite games from earlier this year, when the world was normal.
