Some Canberrabirds readers may be interested in the following
fundraising event, Thursday 10 or Friday 11 November 2011, 7.15pm :

Death in the Gardens (http://www.friendsanbg.org.au/DintheG.html)

The Friends of the Australian National Botanic Gardens are gathering
for their annual dinner.
DCI Holmes (Ret’d) is to speak on “Botany as a Forensic Science”.
However, as the guests assemble it is revealed that there has been a
sudden death in the Gardens.
Newscasts introduce an element of suspicion into the occasion and
further clues suggest that foul play may be involved. It begins to
look like murder!
What could have happened? Who could have been involved? Was it
Technical Director Ann Gophera, who was turned down for the top job?
Or Aidan Anthus, the junior horticulturist who has a mysterious past?
Or one of half a dozen other members who are shown to have possible
motives?
Who could lead the Friends to solve this mystery except the inimitable
DCI Holmes?
Great-nephew of the famous Sherlock, he brings the same devastating
powers of deduction together with a sense of humour that beggars
description.
Participants are guaranteed a challenging and competitive mystery, and
a tasty supper. This lighthearted evening’s entertainment will engage
everyone at whatever level they choose. Come on your own or make up a
table
DATES: Thursday 10 or Friday 11 November 2011 in the Crosbie Morrison
Building at the Australian National Botanic Gardens. Please arrive by
7.15pm for a 7.30pm start.
