Month of the Greats - Ithi & Rhea's Excellent Adventure

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

(just awake and dropped off my notifications but I will think on it :) )

[Ithillian Turambar]

ah ... here you are

[Ithillian Turambar]

*shakes everyone else awake too*

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

:)

 

yup, gotta shower and drive but I'll keep the notice fresh and use my brain when it wakes up.

[Rhea]

I love Florence Nightingale! 

 

Ooo....this next clue is a doozy! How does one's life become a message?

[Gudrean]

Gandhi

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

if his death shows the path, he died at birla house, I think in Mumbai

[Ithillian Turambar]

The wiki does say that Gandhi said his life was his message - so I think gudrean is spot on there.

 

I don't think we need to go the the place where he was killed though. Are there any other places we could go to that are linked to his death?

[Gudrean]

Raj Ghat Memorials?

[Ithillian Turambar]

Yes. I think that's it!

 

*pours Cindy another saucer of milk and scrambles the jet*

 

Permission to buzz the Tower?

 

*after a reasonably long, but comfortable flight the Questors arrive in Delhi. They locate the memorial and gather round it*

 

Ok ... Here goes.

 

*click*

 

 

The screen goes dark and the following message is displayed

 

Gandhi was a Bearer of Excalibur

 

Then it goes dark again before the next clue is revealed

 

Deeds not words. We fought the Law and the Law won. Purple and white flowers on the green grass now grow Victorious.

 

We are racing through this - already almost at present day. I don't think there will be many more clues before we find it   

 

 

And now I have to skidaddle. Day out with the family and stuff. Yay for Tuesdays!

[Niniel]

The second line is from a Clash song? Victorious is a show for kids...

 

I´m not good at this. 

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

not kent state?

[Gudrean]

also the Bobby Fuller Four sang it

[Gudrean]

could it have anything to do with The Victory Garden?, an American public television program about gardening and other outdoor activities, produced by station WGBH in Boston, Massachusetts, and distributed by PBS

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

Deeds not words. We fought the Law and the Law won. Purple and white flowers on the green grass now grow Victorious

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

I don't know why I'm thinking MLK Jr, maybe just the theme

[Ithillian Turambar]

No ... I don't think any of those are correct. How about just concentrating on the very first part of the clue?

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

deeds not words, one of washingtons mottos but that's back in time... hmmm

[Ithillian Turambar]

Perhaps with us approaching the end of our quest - we are once more heading back to its home.

 

I think I'lll have a curry while we wait. I do really like a nice curry. And a giant naan bread too. Some nice pilau rice and a bottle of Tiger Beer

 

*wonders if anyone else would like to join her*

[Gudrean]

the first part was one of Washington's mottos

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

Pankhurst, suffragette, ww1 England, colors of the Wspu flag

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

she has a statue in Victoria tower gardens

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

that's the motto she coined, or borrowed, re the male response to suffragists to just be patient. words not deeds.

 

militant, imprisoned, yes, the hunger strikes and force feeding?

[Gudrean]

I'm with Cindy

[Turin Turambar]

Joins Ithi for the curry and other stuffs.

 

Yummy

 

Are we there yet?
