I just started working on it.
TBB, four words? Hmm...

No - probably not...

**Posted by tobeornot221b** July 7, 2013 6:15 pm

Oh - found it! (This time for real)
Anyone else please solve it? I don't want it to be my turn again...

I was just wondering what happened to our anagram game. Haven't seen it in a long time.
Maybe another hint, shouldbestudying?

It's been over a month now...and such a pity no-one's solved it as yet.
On behalf of shouldbestudying I'd say: Come on - this isn't too difficult!

Yes well done your turn

Oh dear... um... I'm going to have to think about this for a while.

Great idea, shouldbestudying! What about you?

Ok - while we're waiting for you (oh, this word again!) here's an easy one.

I like it besleybean It's a good thing that not all these anagrams are hard to solve so people like me can also take part in the game I solved it but I don't think I could come up with an anagram so

Mrs. Hudson.

HALF FEET OVERLAY

Well come on, it isn't too hard.

**Posted by tobeornot221b** September 26, 2013 8:59 pm

Hmmm...if there was another S it would be
"Professor Cairns"...
Otherwise, I have no idea.

**Posted by Jacco111** September 27, 2013 3:30 pm

I stumbled upon that too, but I still don't get it. I am not a native speaker of English but I was under the impression that cairns were piles of stone. If that is the case, how does it relate to Sherlock Holmes?

**Posted by besleybean** September 27, 2013 4:55 pm

Because of Professor Cairns, who is killed by the Golem in Great Game.

**Posted by Jacco111** September 27, 2013 5:21 pm

Ah, I still had my 'Canon mindset' on.

**Posted by tobeornot221b** September 27, 2013 5:49 pm

So - here's the next one.
A simple statement.
