Nothing to worry about?

I'm totally stumped by this one. Best I've come up with (and I'm pretty sure it isn't right) is The rain (rein) in Spain.

Is this the end of the game of does anyone else have any other ideas?

It's something to do with Castles or Castling (the 0-0 and 0-0-0 are the usual representation of that move in Chess)

I didn't know that either. Does this mean that Scurra has got it though? :D

All the information is present but can anyone sort it out and put it together?

Err... no. Unless it's something like the Alhambra?

Thanks to Scurra for the hint ;)

Well that is what I assumed it was, after Scurra's explanation about castles. Which is why I asked if that meant he had got it.

I think it means something like daydreaming.

So I don't know if that is Scurra or Wulfruna to do the next one - assuming Cenwulf confirms that is what he was after.

I assumed that Castles in Spainwas the answer, but didn't want to have to set the next one. :P

Yes, it was one of those phrase hanging in the back of my mind from years ago (as an alternative to being "in the air").

Here's one for Puzzlebrainers...
