Mouseketeer Posted May 6, 2020 Author Posted May 6, 2020 I couldn’t make Narnia fit 1 until ‘chronicles’ was added. Quote
Froglet Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 This is part of the scene at the end of Prince Caspian when all the trees speak and move again. Everyone has a feast but of course the trees can’t have ordinary food! Quote

Keeping mine in the warm a bit longer yet - mind you, I'm in North Yorkshire so ........ Oh I know - I stopped the planting out as soon as I saw the forecast! A bit worried about our runner beans - but if needs be we can cover with fleece As ever, we are battling with wildlife here - our strawberries (in polytunnel) ripening nicely - then lots of holes were appearing - turned out to be blackbirds letting themselves in and enjoying a fruity feast! have had to give my lupins a 'soapy spray' as they were covered in some sort of aphids.... Anyway - apologies - this is a games thread - right where were we - what are we still looking for young froglet? Quote
Froglet Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 I was just thinking we needed an update. These are the ones we're still missing. 3. This place is ten miles long and five miles wide, off the coast of Mexico. It has a natural harbour with cliffs in the south west and sandy beaches in the north. Male author whose name always makes me think of trains. Throw in a pirate or two! 4. A place in a deep, sheltered valley, it was founded by a Lord and was a safe place for a group of 'people', some tall, some small, some with hairy toes and some with pointy ears. 6. A small village named after an important boundary. On the other side of the boundary is the land of Faerie where there are 7 princes and the main character searches for a fallen star. 8. This place is in the barren regions of icy-cold Finland. At its heart is a frozen lake broken into a thousand pieces. A little girl goes to rescue her friend from this place. A modern film based on this story has a song that everyone just would not let go. 9. A very haunted place, filled with mystery and spirits. Excellent horse rider especially given that he can't see. 1 Quote

This is in Middle Earth (or at least in Lord of the Rings, just in case there are any LOTR fans out there who know the geography far better than me!) Quote
sunnyday Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Oh - I don't know anything about LOTR Is it 'Hobbity Hollow'' Quote
Cait Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Number 8. Arandelle? Can't get that song out of my head now! Quote

Cait Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 I'm thinking the film Stardust and Wall? Was it that? Wall was more of a town than a village so probably wrong again 😂😂 1 Quote

Cait Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Hmmm. I'm thinking that film was it Ichabod Crane or something with the rider with his head under his arm - or have I dreamed that? 😳😳😳 Quote

Froglet Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Yes - one of those with loads of names. Refrigerator cake, chocolate crunchies, tiffin. I call it decluttering the baking cupboard! I'm also trying to find recipes that don't use flour! 1 Quote
