Sleeping

Just to let passers by know, although this site might look moribund it is instead, like King Arthur’s knights, sleeping under the hill waiting to ride out and save the world in its hour of need.

Circumstances both within and beyond my control mean that I cannot spend time writing it at present, but be sure that all comments are read and considered. So if there is anyone out there that is still occasionally pondering on the puzzle please join in.

Comments won’t appear straight away, I need to moderate them first, i really don’t want this site to become a place for anyone criticising Emilie in any way so I need to weed out inappropriate comments. I know I was very active for many years on the Asylum forum and later the Reform forum, & I am the first to admit that I might have said some things in the past, but those battles are lost and won.

I was thinking recently about the four little corner rebuses – the bee, the leaf, the II and the eye. I think that we have all successfully translated that as “I believe too”. But I never thought so what? So it just struck me – & i suspect this is elementary and that you are all way ahead of me on this bit – but the “I believe too” starts in the lower righthand corner of the board and goes around clockwise. This must be a pointer that some other process in the puzzle must also start in the same place and move around in the same way. Nothing is there by chance.

We look to the sky

Diamonds swimming in squid’s ink

Tilting back our heads

Until we cannot close our mouths

We try to count but lose our place

And shiver

Not becasue it is cold

But because we are afraid of falling
