(The holiday connection is an important clue...)

Bah, and "Letters from Father Christmas" is the only minor work I don't have. :confused:

"n"s ?

Ah, tricky Polar Bear spelling!:D (I was sure you had forgotten an S in "busy")

"Very sorry. Been bizy. Can't find that alphabet. Will look after Christmas and post it."

Thank you for posting that quote ; I enjoyed browsing through the delightful Father Christmas Letters again!

You're absolutely right, Guinevere! I thought that quote sounded so much like P.B. was writing on a forum. :D

Thanks, Esty! Perhaps you're too "bizy" for this game right now, but here is another quote:

"-/ -----/ -------/ ---/. ----/ --/ ---------/ -/ ----/ --/ -----/, ---/ ----/ ---/ -/ ---/."

Again:

Ssssss

"R"s?

RS

STARE

STAREY

Guinevere, again, wonderful quote! Kudos! :)

I somehow like the Old Troll... :cool:

Well done, The Might ! I'm glad you joined us - there are too few Minor Works fans.

Ah, thank you! I do also enjoy the minor works, they have their own charm in my opinion. And I agree, too many people ignore the fact that Tolkien actually wrote other things than M-e related works.

Have fun, guessing!

"u"s?

I am pleased to inform there are no Us NEAR YOU.

Btw, did you say U on purpose so I would get my second word changed from the gangsta version? :D

"i"s"?

Yo, Might...Just hope Adrian doesn't tell Rocky
about youse using yo, Ya know what I mean?


Btw, watch for Rocky #26, wherein a 300-year-old
Stallone takes on Curufin in a no holds barred
match on the plains of Anfauglith.

Yeah, "Rocky" could then maybe equal "Hellraiser" in number of sequels. (ok, that would be only eight though) :D

About time to solve this one! ;)

"My wife has been ill for some days and I am getting worried."

says Parish to Niggle

Sounds like a comment on the current health situation here in Europe! The flu is making the rounds and had me prostrate for several days - I hope I may have a wee bit of time to join actively in the next round...

Indeed correct! :)

Although I must say I have remained healthy for the past months despite the "interesting" weather conditions here in Germany. Bah, Sauerland! (I think Estelyn will know what I mean) :D

OK, her's a new one:

"---/ ---/ -----/ ---/ --/!" "--/ ---'--/ ---/ ----/ ---/ -------/, ----/ --/ --/ ----/."

A-bomb
