The ferry is by far the preferred mode of transport. A rowboat would make even the most hardy Mistress sick with all those raspberries, cherries, sherry, herrings and cranberries.

You, too, are entitled to an assay, novice SparkOut.

Novice SparkOut - although you may feel that an expedition or journey could feed your mind with fruitful knowledge, you would be mistaken. Your lesson is best learned here in Puzzlebrainia. However, your patience and perseverance with such an errant Mistress is truly humbling. Novice Cenwulf, I am h...

Fairy Nuff.I just wondered! I thought I may be being ignored since I started the food fight!

:oops: Novice Scurra, I am delighted to hear from SparkOut that you still have strawberries up your sleeve, since these are clearly also one of the sweetest fruits. Sadly, apples do not hold appeal ( even though they do hold a peel). The Mistress is most displeased at the suggestion that she is nuts...

Well, I was going to say

But I've been banned!

Thankyou, novice Scurra, for setting me straight on this matter.

I am delighted that you have a taste for the sweetness of raspberries , since r...

Although both the camel and the donkey may carry a burden, to them the burden is heavy and arduous. The straightest road to enlightenment may be rather than to question these beasts, to interrogate them is the preferred method to further your knowledge.

Your wish is my command, my loyal friend. The mantle is both freshly scented and ready warmed. It will keep me cosy for that brief period before the next student whips it from me.

I will, with great reverence, accept the mantle bestowed upon me. This lesson is one in which students must learn and grow by their mistakes in order to increase their wisdom. Your quest is to savour both red herrings and cranberries , but not to be tempted to indulge in either rainbow trout or blac...

Oh fellow student, I gratefully acknowledge your spelling instruction, which I have now learned from, and have subsequently adjusted my post. I bow to your superior knowledge. However, my learning indicates the following two points: 1. In modern usage, “fulsome” has two inconsistent meanings. To som...

Thank you, Master, for the trust which you have bestowed upon me; I accept your challenge graciously. I believe that the teachings have tempted me towards the righteous path of enlightenment. My humble conclusion is thus: to progress toward Nirvana, I must use words with their power reinforced doubl...

Worshipful master, I hope I have learned a valuable lesson. However, I am unsure how to check my understanding. Should it be through private message thought transference, or before the other students, so that they may learn from my errors?

Greetings, oh wise Master. May I venture the idea that to suggest is correct, whereas to choose is the work of a fool??

Breadcrumb trails? BodyTags? Do you need the body tag to identify Gretel after the witch has got her??

Hi there all. This is really spiffy! Looking forward to the puzzle magazine, and, as SparkOut says, wasting even more time!
