No, miss Wonderfull, clue me in a bit more! Yours is one of the ones I'm throwing in the hat for a random draw. But I think it might be because I've not had a lost of conversations with you before. We always seems to just be missing each other.

Let's get to know each other! How ya doing? What's your sign? Haven't we met before? What's a nice gal like you doing on a topic like this? Would you like to come over for tea and crumpits? Do you know what a crumpit is? Am I spelling crumpit correctly?

I am going to try and get some serious guessing done today

I will send you my guesses later Dizzbomb

Not sure where to put this - but I will post it here

Lizzie's hubby emailed me yesterday to let me know that her operation went really well and that she was recovering and resting last night back in the ward

He will give me another update soon and I will let you know how she is

Thanks for the update on Liz, Lillie. I was wondering how she was doing also. I was going to PM you today and see if you had heard anything.

Thanks for the update on Liz. Good to hear things went well.

Let's hope she's clearheaded enough to play BrainTraining, or she'll be bored to bits...

Lauries is the one that looks Canadian, no wait, that could be Bobs...

I should have stuck to my first impressions.
I go down the list and when I get to the last name and the last desk I say "that can't be right", so I switch one or two and just keep making it worse!
I am now entirely confused, not entirely clueless, just entirely confused.

Robyn, now you've done it! How can I delete mine, if you've written more? Then we all have to back up and delete. Right? or Wrong?

EDIT: I'm ASSuming everything is ok now Robyn......

Alrighty then...so far, I only have three (that's 3 in English) voters guesses in my PM box. They are: Peegman, Anne Danner and Duiveltje (Rose).

If you've sent me your 'guess' and you're not mentioned here, please PM them to me again.

Thanks!

Hmm more clues....
Well, it doesn't particularly "look" Canadian. Now if we were identifying vehicles., I could have taken a picture of our dogsled. And the pic I took doesn't really show the walls of the igloo too well so that makes it a little tougher "eh?".

However, I will tell you that there is one pretty obvious clue in the photo, and one not so obvious. I like my desk okay; it works for me. Hubby hates it..thinks it's too small (probably because I have a lot of paraphernalia on it) But I say "hey, go get your own desk and leave mine alone! (and make your own dang sammich while you're there!")

P.S. I don't smoke...never have, never will.

rescuefire · Post by **rescuefire** » Fri Feb 01, 2008 3:09 pm

When do the guesses have to be in by?

I'm assuming ya all figured out which one is mine too. I gave lots of clues here as well as things I've talked about recently on the boards. But I'll give more if I need to

NOTICE:
I've decided to wait until Kiki returns to the forum, to decide the 'winner'!
We've got all the time in the world.

My desk is pretty bare, but if you look on top ya better beware

Wonderfull, thanks for the tip I think I got it

Lillie · Post by **Lillie** » Fri Feb 01, 2008 4:41 pm

This comp is too hard!

All the clues that have been placed on the desks cannot be seen really! Maybe because the photo's have been made smaller? Is it just me or is it quite hard to see stuff in detail? Maybe I need some spex

More clues please - like a Canadian desk should have some snow on it or a giant Moose? Or a male desk should have a big pair of men's knickers on it or a pipe or somethang male!

Hey-elp

OK.

1) How ya doing?
I'm doing fine

2) What's your sign?
Haven't a clue

3) Haven't we met before?
Perhaps in a level we've passed each other

4) What's a nice gal like you doing on a topic like this?
I'm here because I love games, especially logic puzzles and brain teasers

5) Would you like to come over for tea and crumpits?
Sure! I'd love to.

6)Do you know what a crumpit is?
No idea

7)Am I spelling crumpit correctly?
No idea. That's why I asked. Spelling is not my forte. But I assume it's not correct.

(And yes, there is a clue to my desk in there, somewhere.

)

Dizzy1 · Post by **Dizzy1** » Fri Feb 01, 2008 4:51 pm

HINT:

I have two Tiny Yorkies who need to be around me all the time!

(or did everyone already have mine pegged?)

OK.

my turn:
1) How ya doing?
Freezing, way up north here

2) What's your sign?
Aquarius, but not into astronomy (hehe

)

3) Haven't we met before?
Well, looks like we joined in the same month, but you are apparently 3 times chattier than I am

4) What's a nice gal like you doing on a topic like this?
Wonderland's a great escape from reality

5) Would you like to come over for tea and crumpits?
Sure! if I'm ever in the neighborhood, wherever the neighborhood might be

6)Do you know what a crumpit is?
Saw a pic on the board somewhere

7)Am I spelling crumpit correctly?
Nope...it's proper English spelling is crumpet I believe, and we all know how proper the English are

And there are several clues to my desk, in fact I've probably totally given it away by now!

rescuefire · Post by **rescuefire** » Fri Feb 01, 2008 5:08 pm

Ah haaaaaaaaaaaa Dizzy that one is YOURS! Got it

Ya know, before I resized the pictures I tried to see if there was anything obvious on the desks or in the background but didn't really see anything. At least nothing lost any detail in the resizing as far as I could tell.

If anyone's desk needs to be made larger cuz you feel that your desk is too small to see clues then PM Dizzy and she can tell me the picture number and I can make them large again. Sound good?

I think I know all of em except Bobster, Monica, JG and Kiki.

Dizzy1 · Post by **Dizzy1** » Fri Feb 01, 2008 6:11 pm

Votes are in from Loirae and Laura N.

I'm going to go tally the votes a little and see who's winning. Be back in a little bit. (going to eat a sammich)

Dizzy1 · Post by **Dizzy1** » Fri Feb 01, 2008 7:10 pm

OMG, this is waaaaaaaay too funny.......reading your guesses!

(the few that are in, anyway)

It looks like Loirae is IN THE LEAD!!!!!
Next is Laura N.

Gonna PM Anne though, she sent me two #5's and no #16.

But she's cute...

...so that's ok.
