Yup. That's what I thought. :)
Btw, has Switzerland ever done anything in World Cup
or European tournaments? Isn't the population majority
German, and Germany, of course, is always good in the sport.
Also, have you seen the National Geographic feature on football/soccer?

Oh, and how about "h"s?

"Th-t/ h-t/ ---t-/ ---/ --------/, ---ht/ h---/ ----/ --d-/ ---/ ---/. -/ h---/ th----/ --/ ----/ ---h/ ---/."



ot: I must admit I have no idea http://www.travar.de/Templates/Webpr...embarassed.gif I am not a sportsfan at all. During the world championship was the first time I ever watched some games. ( the next European Championship in 2008 will be held in Switzerland)

A, please.

Un P por favor.

TDH AP (+ a forgotten T)

"That/ hat/ ---t-/ ---/ p--p----/, ---ht/ ha--/ ----/ -ad-/ ---/ ---/. -/ h-p-/ th----/ --/ ----/ --th/ ---/."

Any "m"s?

TDHAP M

"That/ hat/ ---t-/ ---/ p--p----/, m--ht/ ha--/ ----/ mad-/ ---/ ---/. -/ h-p-/ th----/ --/ ----/ --th/ ---/."

There aren't too many stories with a "hat", but it did take awhile for me to search through Roverandom, Farmer Giles, and Tom Bombadil till I finally found the quote in Smith of Wootton Major:

Correct
 

Sorry to have wasted so much of your time... ;)
(my referance was to your football hat of course)

ot: I have now bought the special edition of Smith of Wootton Major too and am currently enjoying Tolkien's introduction to The Golden Key

We can upload our pictures to the internet faster than Nokes could polish his frying pan! Here's a new one - perhaps applicable to HI? ;)
(I look forward to hearing how you enjoy the EE of Smith!)

Aha! :)

said the king, when he learned that Farmer Giles on his way back with the dragon and the treasure had turned to his home instead of coming straight to the king.

Very good, Guinevere - I'm proud that it took you at least a bit longer and a few letters more than normal to figure this one out! ;)

Thank you, Esty!

"--/ ----/ ---/ ----/ ------/ ------/ ---/ ----/ --/ -------/ --/ --/; -----/ -'-/ ----/, ---/ ----/ --/ ---/ ----/ ----------/ --/ ---/ ---/."

S, please.

yess, but we has only two...

"--/ ----/ ---/ ----/ ------/ ------/ ---/ ----/ --/ -------/ --/ --/; -----/ -'-/ ----/, ---/ --s-/ --/ ---/ ----/ ----------/ --/ ---/ s--/."

S T, please
 

No S without T...

ST

"--/ ----/ ---/ ----/ ------/ ------/ ---/ t---/ --/ t-----t/ --/ --/; -----/ -'-/ ---t/, t--/ --st/ --/ ---/ ----/ ---t---t--/ t-/ t--/ s--/."

E, please.

EST

"--/ ----/ --e/ ---e/ -e----/ -e----/ ---/ t--e/ --/ t-----t/ --/ -e/; ----e/ -'-/ -e-t/, t-e/ --st/ --/ ---/ ----/ -e-t-e-t--/ t-/ t-e/ se-/."

ESTY

OK, I know Y may be a rare letter, but just for the fun of having my nick complete...

:D two Y's for Esty!

"-y/ ----/ --e/ ---e/ -ey---/ -e----/ ---/ t--e/ --/ t-----t/ --/ -e/; ----e/ -'-/ -e-t/, t-e/ --st/ --/ ---/ ----/ -e-t-e-t--/ t-/ t-e/ se-/."

M, please.

MY SET

"My/ ----/ --e/ ---e/ -ey---/ -e----/ ---/ t--e/ --/ t-----t/ --/ me/; ----e/ -'m/ -e-t/, t-e/ --st/ --/ ---/ ---m/ -e-t-ert--/ t-/ t-e/ se-/."

Hmmm, the end is almost certainly "to the sea", and it looks like two lines of poetry - but I can't find it in the poems I've searched so far. Am I right with that suspicion?

At any rate, let's have another letter; maybe that will help. R, please.

MYSTER(Y)

"My/ ----/ -re/ ---e/ -ey---/ re----/ ---/ t--e/ --/ t-----t/ --/ me/; ----e/ -'m/ -e-t/, t-e/ --st/ --/ ---/ -r-m/ -e-t-ert--/ t-/ t-e/ se-/."

You're right about the poetry!

Let's have an A then, just to be sure I see the sea...

A MYSTER(Y)

"My/ ----/ are/ ---e/ -ey---/ re-a--/ a--/ ta-e/ --/ t-----t/ --/ me/; a---e/ -'m/ -e-t/, t-e/ -ast/ --/ a--/ -r-m/ -eat-ert--/ t-/ t-e/ sea/."

I guess this will give you enough hints now...

You'd think that would be enough, but I can't find it. Oh well, let's have another letter...

O, please.
