"There is plenty of scope for bold young men not afraid of new ideas and new methods."

Councillor Tompkins on the subject of painting.

Excellent, Guinevere! Once again you astound me with your ability to get the whole quote from so few letters. Your turn is well earned!

Guinevere 02-20-2006 02:22 PM

Thank you Esty! :)
I hope this one isn't too short:

Yes, well done Esty! I thought that that one was rather obscure.

Estelyn Telcontar 02-25-2006 03:11 AM

Here's a chain of short sentences:
Quote:

--'- ---- -- ----! --- -'- ---- --- ---. - ----- ----- ---. -- --- ------. --- ------, --- ----- ---.

"He's gone at last! And I'm glad for one. I never liked him. He was artful. Too nimble, you might say."

Nokes about Alf Prentice at the very end of the story!

Estelyn Telcontar 02-27-2006 02:49 PM

Very good, and very right! Your turn, Guinevere.

Estelyn Telcontar 03-01-2006 02:37 AM

T-time - no matter what other letters I try to keep the thread from being boring and predictable, T is still the one that helps most, at least most of the time!

Guinevere 03-01-2006 03:08 AM

T is served :D

"--/ --/ -----n-/, -/ --/ -------/. ---/ --t-r/ ---/ t----/ --nt-r---/ t-/ ---/ -/ --n/ ---n-/ ---/ ---/ -----/; --t/ -----/ --r/ ---/, --r----/."
