Penarth Road, in Cardiff, might not sound like a regular setting for the Annual Oscars awards ceremony, but it was last Thursday night! The HSH motor company (Honda) had completed the major renovation to their impressive showroom and wanted to thank their VIP customers with a fun and exciting evening of entertainment.

Scene Of The Crime

Unfortunately, there was a ghastly death before the first award could be given out and then another before the delicious desserts were served! Luckily the local constable, PC Bailey, was on hand for crowd control and was eventually able to apprehend the villain amongst the party and save the day.

Marketing Manager Dawn commented, “I want to say a big thank you to your team for a brilliantly entertaining evening, our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves.”
