It's not shopping to us, it's a walk-through engineering demo. :)

I always think of it as a site visit for a potential orienteering sprint event - world cup maybe.

Oh good, I'm not the only one. I actually put the Perth Ikea store on my list of potential sprint areas when I was mapping convenor, albeit under the "Highly Unlikely To Get Approval" column. :)

It would be easy to set clue questions though!

Sounds like someone's already thought of something along similar lines (and Ikea doesn't like it).

Aren't all the stores the same layout, meaning that they would all have to be embargoed the world over?

I still think that ferry-O, with a control in the lift, sounds hard to top! But I absolutely agree that someone should set a multi-level event somewhere inside a building someplace in Aust (I spent ages poring over the AO article from the school event in Sweden because it fascinated me).

Yes I saw the ban on Hide and Seek. That is all well and good until you just get lost in there and someone has to come and find you

and a game of Marco Polo is the wrong nationality too.
