So close! In fact, the credits started, but they were interrupted and there was more to do! I’m investigating some “doings” at the circus. It’s all gone very odd. I won’t say much more as it might spoil it for people, but it involves fleas… Now my battery is dead. Bah.

Ahhh – so you have to click on that exact pixel at the hot-dog stand. Grr. How irritating.

The Planetarium is now open for visiting too, and there’s a creepy guy who stands outside it with a wind-up music box thing. He’s quite scary. I’ve managed to get onto the second part of this case. I have, however, started to notice a few niggley things about Touch Detective. Firstly, some of the …
