O, please

O yes!

"There has been a flood in the valley, and many families are homeless."

The Inspector to Niggle , explaining why the Emergency Service was busy elsewhere and couldn't attend to Parish's leaking roof.

Bravo, Guinevere! Well done - that wasn't easy to find! You deserve your turn.

Thank you, Esty! :)

"---/, --/ -----/ ---/! ---/ ------/ -----/ ---/ ------/ --/ ------/!"

I hope this one isn't too short...

Let's try the Rs to start off with!

R - but we has only one...

"---/, --/ -----/ ---/! ---/ ------/ -----/ ---/ ------/ --/ --r---/!"

OK, it was a good try for a different start - now let's get serious again and have an S, please.

"---/, --/ s----/ s--/! ---/ -----s/ -----/ ---/ -----s/ --/ --r---/!"

Never say S without T!
 

Ts, please

"u"s, please.

R, S, T , no U sorry!

"---/, --/ s----/ s--/! --t/ -----s/ -----/ t--/ t----s/ --/ --r---/!"

E, please

REST (no U)

"---/, -e/ s----/ see/! -et/ t----s/ ----e/ t--/ t----s/ -e/ e-r-e-/!"

+ I added a forgotten T http://www.travar.de/~allskins/Webpr...embarassed.gif

L, please

REST L (no U)

"---/, -e/ s--ll/ see/! Let/ t----s/ ----e/ t-l/ t----s/ -e/ e-r-e-/!"

Corrigan speaking to Aotrou, The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun

Yes; well done, Esty!http://www.travar.de/~allskins/Webpr...s/luxhello.gif

Ready for a new one? (As before, the _ indicates a - in the text.)

"r"s?

------- ------ --- ---r--- --- ---- --- ----- -r-- -- _ ------ r------ --r ---r-, --- - ------ ---r----.

Are there any O's ?

R O
 

----o-- ------ -o- ---r--- --- ---- -o- -o--- -ro- -- _ ------ r------ -or ---r-, --- - ------ -o-r----.

must have some T's, after all! ;)

R O T
 

--t-o-t t----- -o- ---r--- --- t--t -o- -o--- -ro- -- _ -----t r-----t -or ---r-, --- - --tt-- -o-rt---.

hm N perhaps ?

--t-o-t t--n-- -o- ---rn-- --- t--t -o- -o--- -ro- -- _ -----t r-----t -or ---r-, --- - --tt-- -o-rt---.

Perhaps S is more helpful ...

http://www.travar.de/~allskins/Webpr...mages/idea.gif The last word revealed it!

"Without thanks you learned all that you could from me - except respect for Faery, and a little courtesy."

Alf Prentice to old Nokes, shortly before revealing himself as King of Faery.

Excellent, Guinevere! I'd have thought it too difficult to get yet; as always you astonish me with your uncanny ability to grasp the context of a bunch of loosely knit letters!

thank you for the flowers, Esty! :) But you're just as good or better at this!

Here comes the next one:

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

no X-periments!
 

Let's start very predictably with S, please.

"o"s, please.

and the n's

SON

"--/ -oo-/ -/ -----/ ----/ o-/ ----s/ ----/ ---ns/, --s-/ -o-/ -----/ o-n/ s---/. ---/ --/ n----/ --o----/ ----/ ----/ ----/ ---/ ---o---n-/."

T, please...

T is served

"--/ too-/ -/ ----t/ ----/ o-/ ---ns/ --t-/ -----s/, --st/ -o-/ t----/ o-n/ s---/. --t/ --/ n----/ t-o----/ t--t/ t--t/ ----/ ---/ ---o-t-nt/."

Again, the last word gave it away! The Second Voice, speaking of Niggle to the First Voice.

That's the one! Good work, Esty!http://www.travar.de/~allskins/Webpr.../notworthy.gif (I myself wouldn't have guessed that one, for sure!)
