Sherlock Anagrams

Ok  this is a new game  involving anagrams.    What you are doing is you are taking each letter in the anagram, and you're unscrambling them, to make a phrase or a name,  that relates to Sherlock Holmes and everything connected to that.  It's like  scrambles...you unscramble the anagrams to get the correct words or names.   

Here is one example:

Anagram Run Rocks Shelter stands for  'Sherlock Returns'

If you have questions  please  post them here.  . As  the game progresses, I will let you try your hand at putting anagrams here.    Google  ANAGRAM  SOLVERS  online,  and you'll find some good sites there to help you.  For the first one, I will list how many words are in the answer.   As we get more experienced,   there may be no need for that. When you post your anagram, please tell us if it's a quote OR a name, and how many words are in the answer, ok?  That's the main clue we need at first. Thank you and do have a lovertly one!!   


~~~~~~~~~~~
  Here's the one  to start off with.    The answer is 2 words. 

Anagram:   Shrek Elm School   



Have fun!!

Re: Sherlock Anagrams

I hoped the title of the topic would be an anagram itself. Sorry, I suck at anagrams myself so I'll just watch.

Re: Sherlock Anagrams

"Dramagrod"? Don't you try and anagram me behind my back, girl. I know the title can't be turned into an anagram, I just thought it would've been awesome. Don't mind me, I should get to bed anyways.

Haha, don't worry about such a thing, kitty. I'm only messing with you. Even my father sometimes calls me by my older brother's name.

Re: Sherlock Anagrams

How do you want this done Kitty? Can just the successful answered pose the next one or can anyone do the torturing?

Re: Sherlock Anagrams

Kazza   you are correct!!   Do  you  want to post  the next anagram?   If  not,   I  have one readylet us know here. .   

Davina--I'd  like to wait  and see if  other players know how to do anagrams.   do  you know how to do them?  If not,  I'll continue the 'torturing' for now.  there are anagram makers  and solvers online, if you know where to look.  the one that I use  is  this one-- If you do the advanced one,  you can choose what word you want in your anagram.  that's how I got the word SHREK  in there!!  he's my favorite green ogre!! 

http://wordsmith.org/anagram/index.html

I'll be back in a couple of hours.

    In the meantime,  here's a simple one.   the answer is ONE word. 

And Hung

Re: Sherlock Anagrams

I just did my first anagram.
It's a quote. The answer is three words:

PERFECT
SPLINE
TORPEDO


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
John: "Have you spoken to Mycroft, Molly, uh, anyone?"
Mrs Hudson: "They don’t matter. You do."


I BELIEVE IN SERIES 5!

  from tobeornot221B       It's a quote. The answer is three words:     (Yes I know the answer.  Anyone else want to try to solve it first?)

Hint!!  So---It's a quote of three words,   and we HAVE  used it in the Hangman game,  and the first letter of the first word  starts with the letter F.
