> Where is she!!
> You will find out in due course. Now please make your way to the beach.
> Whats at the beach?
> Your next challenge. (Smiley Face).
> What you got me doing now?
> I will tell you when you get to the beach. Now, I've taken into account your many pleas to end our game, and although I cannot end it entirely I may be willing to shorten it if in turn you are willing to admit your guilt.
> So if I tell you what you want to hear you'll at least let sandra go?
> No David, not what I want to hear... I want you to tell the truth! I want you to explain how you killed Millie. I told you earlier that today was a lesson in telling the truth.
******
> David?
> If I do, you have to promise you'll let sandra go, ok!
> I don't have to promise anything David. I am simply offering you the opportunity to appeal to my compassionate side. Tell the truth and I may be willing to loosen the shackles of my game. (Smiley Face).
> No deal then!! No promise, no confession!
> That's a shame. Oh well, I did try. (Sad Face). Perhaps instead you can answer a question I have regarding your relationship with Millie. Did you argue with Millie frequently?
> Every marriage has arguments!
> And what would you say were the main causes of your arguments? Was it because Millie discovered your infidelity with Sandra?
> No! We just argued about my drinking & me being away on business a lot!
> So you admit to having a drinking problem.
> NO... I don't have a problem. Yes I like a drink now & then, but it was never as bad as she always made out, I had it under control ok!
> Alcoholics seldom admit the full extent of their dependency. Tell me, did the drinking exasperate your already aggressive nature?
> NO! Look, yes we argued, & yes it was heated at times & I'd punch a wall or door, but I've never hit millie ok!
> I see, so the police have never been called out as a result of your arguments with Millie then?
> Yes, just once, about 6 months before she died. But police put it down to an everyday domestic & left shortly after!
> What actually happened David?
> We had some friends over for an xmas dinner party & millie started going on about my drinking again in front of evryone, so I took her in other room to talk private & things got heated, next thing I know one of millies friends had called the police becus of our shouting.
> Are you sure it was only because of the shouting that Millie's friend called the police?
> Yes! I don't care what you think ok, you wasnt there!
> I wouldn't be so sure of that David.
******
> David?
> Fuck me, LMAO! It all makes sense now! & all along I thought you were a guy... you BITCH!!!
> I'm sorry, you've lost me David? What makes sense?
> Your millies friend, the one from that night who called police! Your from millies publisher, that editor or proof reader or whatever, you worked on her books! That's why I cant guess your name becus millie never called you by your name did she, she used to call you babs, that was your nickname! You've never liked me! That's what all this monkey story crap is about isn't it, that why you spell everthing in full, that how you were able to set up the theatre thing... its YOU isn't it BABS!!!
******
> Hello??
> Sorry I was changing the bandages on Bens thumbs. The rules were that you guessed my name David. So I'm going to need a name I'm afraid. A description of who you think I am is not good enough.
> I cant remember your name ok! I think millie mentioned it once but that was ages ago! I'll never remember it!!
> But you have three letters David. I'm sure if you search deep within that pee size brain of yours you'll find it somewhere!
> I don't know ok!!
> That's a shame. (Sad Face). My friends tell me you are approaching the beach front. Are you ready for the next part of our game?
> Not really!!
> Excellent. So after defeating the Dragon (by cunningly luring it outside the cave in daylight and turning it to stone) Divad talks with the Ticket Master who gives him the ticket for his journey across the sea. But before he leaves the Dragon's cave, Divad is told that he must first find the mystic compass hidden somewhere in the dessert. The Ticket Master explains that the compass will guide him to an island where he will find a magic ring to lead him to the treasure at the end of the rainbow!
> Ok so let me guess. I'm at the beach & you want me to find this compass before I go on the boat ride to steep holm island on your stupid map!
> Yes... I'm so proud of you David. (Smiley Face).
> Ok so how I find this compass nutter?
> I have a treasure hunt set up for you. You must find three items. For each item you find I will give you a clue to the next until you find the compass. So here is your first clue: 'On heated sand, some things you'll see, some are real, some will not be. But for a traveller his thirst must be quenched, beside a fortress, within a trench'.
> A fortress, thats a castle, its a sand castle right! But theres 100's of people on the beach today & every other kid has built a sand castle!!
> You have the clue David, and I assure you the answer lies within it. I don't mean to add pressure, but I should point out that the time is now 13:36pm and your boat ride to the island is scheduled to leave no later than 14:15pm. It would be in your play-things interest for you to not miss the boat!
> So that where she is, on the island!
> That's correct David, so you best hurry!
> Cilla, I just remembered, thats your real name, isn't it babs!!
> I'm sorry David, that's not my name. (Sad Face). Now please hurry with your hunt, the clock is ticking.
> But theres to many sand castles! I cant go knocking them all down! I don't get first part of your clue ok!
> It would be no fun, nor would it be much of a treasure hunt if it were easy. I understand that you're highly stressed and are feeling very hot and bothered in your costume, but please take a moment to calmly think about the clue you have been given. The answer is there. As always my friends will join you. Good luck. (Smiley Face).
******
> How are you getting on David?
> I'm looking around beach, brb!
> Okay. I have some things to do, so please text me when you have found your first item.
