Alrighty, I have no fancy-smancy wooden tiles, and it's probably easy-peasy, but...

I was rummaging through my Sherlock closet and came across some "weedy ornamental mastery" or such.

Any clues as to what I've got here? I think it may be valuable and even quite familiar, though I fear there may be a lack of authenticity about it...

(And I apologize if it's already been done...I was not reading through 31 pages of past posts to check.)

Valuable? Familiar? Lack of authenticity?

No matter how hard I try - all I get is a load of rubbish:

That's it, tobe! You are amazing, incredible, fantastic (oh, sorry...was I doing that out loud?)

Seriously, I am wiping tears from my eyes, that was so funny!

Anyone else have a guess?

Hint: Think canon...(though, that might involve the unauthentic part...)

Hmm...do you mean something like this?

Elementary, My Dear Watson?

Finally, someone with a reasonable solution for the problem. Sounds quite convincing to me, sj4iy!

Good job, sj!

Look forward to the next puzzle.

Okay, this is going to be a picture AND hint anagram, so that people know what to look for

Wipers mondo wing gone fifthly

Hint: Looking up, looking down, there are a lot of these around. (Never liked riddles, lol)

Good luck!

Could this be:
"Pigeons flying from the window"?

Perfect!

tobeornot221b · June 23, 2013 6:05 pm

That was a nice one, sj!
Hmmm...my turn, I guess. Just give me a couple of minutes. I have no idea at the mo...

Ok - here we go:

It's a prop, used in PINK and FALL - on different persons.
Three words.

Too difficult?
It looks like this:

Still a prop in PINK and FALL.
Contains a colour.

Yay - you got it!

You're next now.

tobeornot221b · July 1, 2013 6:14 pm

Oh - I don't need a clue - I found it!

tobeornot221b · July 2, 2013 8:04 pm

Maybe this is more convincing?

tobeornot221b · July 4, 2013 8:14 pm

I warn ya!
If you won't give me a hint very soon this will be getting worse!

Harriet · July 4, 2013 8:16 pm

You're superb, tobe!
