PS Bravo to Bracegirdle Wink


It was a foggy day in London, and the fog was heavy and dark. Animate London, with smarting eyes and irritated lungs, was blinking, wheezing, and choking; inanimate London was a sooty spectre, divided in purpose between being visible and invisible, and so being wholly neither. - Our Mutual Friend, Charles Dickens.

It is said by the Eldar that in water there lives yet the echo of the Music of the Ainur more than in any substance that is in this Earth; and many of the Children of Ilúvatar hearken still unsated to the voices of the Sea, and yet know not for what they listen. - The Silmarillion, J. R. R. Tolkien

Rules Rules!? Restart!?

C is for Curunir, the Many-coloured

D is for the Dark Lord, somewhat of a dullard.

“C” and “D” must rhyme. I.e. coloured = dullard

“E” must rhyme with “F” ….. and so on… and on

Restart with E ??
