Umm - are we becoming become a little disjointed in the connections? How are diamonds connected with Die Fledermaus?

FLosshilde,

I am certainly challenged by this thread in the best of ways. I was tapping out a post and your post posted, with my never seeing and reading above my post and it took off into diamonds and snow.... so yes, disjointed.

Now I know this isn't classical music, but "Way up oh.. Owimoweh owimoweh... In the Jungle the mightee Jungle the Lion sleeps Tonight"

Sorry - see I'm a page in arrears

[Eine Alpensinfonie]

Die Fledermaus

Work that connection out

I presume Lewis Carroll might be the connection?

[Eine Alpensinfonie]

Where are we in the game now?

Hi Sigolene,
That's the difficulty, I know - while one's contemplating a reply, someone gets in there first!. But I'd still like to see someone pick up my challenge in my last post - the connection between 'Twinkle, twinkle little star' & 'Die Fledermaus' (hint - it involves English fantasy literature) & come up with a connection with the latter. :smile:


"while one's contemplating a reply, someone gets in there first!" - Hi Alpen, I see you did just that! & full marks to you

Surely I got it in #244. Alice in Wonderland: "Twinkle, twinkle, little bat..."?

Yes you did - that's what I meant. in my post 246 - or did your 247 cross with my 246?

Oh dear - the thread seems to be getting a bit tangled!

Flosshilde, sorry. I didn't read your message properly.
But I still don't know where we are now. :(

Nice & seasonal, although all our snow in Glasgow is melting fast, & causing problems with flooding!

So, back to the game, if it's snowflakes it must be Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker.

Just missed your post, Floss. A bit of a coincidence.
