One-legged pirate dancing was just one of the many activities our brave adventurers took on last Saturday in our 2nd London Treasure Hunt – aka “The Quest for the Golden Chicken”.

The scene was set by Amy and I, scientists who’s been tracking the mysterious and powerful Golden Chicken ever since it arrived in London, and our six teams set out upon their daring mission to discover it’s true power.

One team did this rather unexpectedly quickly – with some quick word work revealing the final location to them actually only minutes from the start. Well done to “Treasure C**t” for tracking it down!

But of course, there was plenty more to keep them, and the other 5 teams occupied all afternoon. The day saw a couple of moving romantic Shakespeare renditions, some very obscene vegetables and an awfully confused security guard called Marvin!

It all culminated in the wonderful Belushi’s, who kindly provided an absolutely cracking party location for the “after party” as well as prizes for runners up, “Threesome”, and the overall winners, “The Mummy Slayers” – who also received a generously donated ticket each to The London Bridge Experience.

A huge thanks to everyone who came and made the event so much fun – and especially to Laura aka “Wizzie the Wizard”, James the pirate, all the scary people at The London Bridge Experience, the Colombian coffee shop, Burnt Sugar in Borough market for the free fudge and Vicky and all the staff at Belushi’s for giving us such a great venue and such unbelievable drinks offers.

They certainly did the trick – and we raised over £325 towards our cause.
