Hm, what could the first 3 words be? :rolleyes:
Perhaps a D would enlighten me!

Aha! :)

"Dear, dear me! I am sure you'll agree that it was only meant to be a bit of fun."

Artaxerxes to Roverandom.

Estelyn Telcontar 09-07-2006 11:46 AM

Bravo, Guinevere! I hope it was a bit of fun...

Guinevere 09-09-2006 02:54 PM

For me it's always a lot of fun ! :D

"n"s?

Estelyn Telcontar 09-11-2006 01:11 PM

I'm sorry not to join in this round, but I'll be travelling for the next few weeks, so can't take part regularly. Hope those of you who remain have a good time!

Well, I wish you a pleasant journey then, Esty! Bon Voyage!

Estelyn Telcontar 10-29-2006 08:37 AM

Well, hasn't this thread been busy in my absence?! ;) Let's get it back to life with a nice rousing "S", please.

Guinevere 10-29-2006 09:15 AM

Welcome back, Esty! :) *digs out the slip of paper with the quote*

Carrūn 10-29-2006 10:53 AM

Could we get a few E's?

Estelyn Telcontar 10-29-2006 10:56 AM

...and I'd like some T to go with my Es, please...

Guinevere 10-30-2006 10:21 AM

Carrūn 10-30-2006 06:05 PM

Estelyn Telcontar 11-01-2006 03:38 AM

Ah, those last letters finally gave me the clue I needed to find the quote. It's from Leaf by Niggle; Parish is speaking to Niggle:
Quote:

I was wondering if you had any wood and canvas you could spare, just to patch me up and see me through for a day or two.

Guinevere 11-01-2006 11:40 AM

Exactly!
 
there weren't many T's and S's in that one! ;)

Estelyn Telcontar 11-01-2006 01:48 PM

Here's another:
Quote:

---- -- --- --- --- -- --- ------, ---- -- -----!

Guinevere 11-01-2006 02:18 PM

O please :)

Estelyn Telcontar 11-01-2006 03:05 PM

O yes
 
---- -- -o- --- --- o- --- ------, ---- -- -o---!

Guinevere 11-02-2006 09:57 AM

Tuor in Gondolin 11-02-2006 10:06 AM

"This is not the end of the affair, mark my words!"
The blacksmith of Ham, when Farmer Giles came back with the dragon laden with treasure.

Estelyn Telcontar 11-04-2006 12:47 AM

Precisely! Next round's yours.

Guinevere 11-04-2006 02:13 PM

Thanks, Esty!

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

(I should have chosen this quote during the football championship! ;) )

Estelyn Telcontar 11-05-2006 11:23 AM

Football, eh? Well, let's start with a T, please.

Guinevere 11-05-2006 11:28 AM

:D

"T--t/ --t/ ---t-/ ---/ --------/, ----t/ ----/ ----/ ----/ ---/ ---/. -/ ----/ t-----/ --/ ----/ ----/ ---/."

Tuor in Gondolin 11-08-2006 01:18 PM

Then "d's, of course. (Or could it be soccer)? :p

Guinevere 11-08-2006 01:30 PM

+ one D

"T--t/ --t/ ---t-/ ---/ --------/, ----t/ ----/ ----/ --d-/ ---/ ---/. -/ ----/ t-----/ --/ ----/ ----/ ---/."

(Being European, I mean what you call soccer in the US)
