okay a clue.
in romeo and juliet, a character who plays this instrument is referred to as Rebec.

Is "arksed" an intentional clue ?

Somebody called Rebec-ca ?

Harry wins. Rebec used to be a relatively common male name, (via shakespeare) it now survives in the female form. similiarly Natas used to be a common male name.
as for arksed; that was just me playing the fool.
another thing about romeo and juliet is that everybody mispronounces the name Juliet, it should strictly be julie-ut.
anyway, over to the royal county.

Nothing else rhymes with them is the answer to the first part.

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Fri Jun 05, 2009 11:19 am

nothing rymes with month but i guess you are looking for a colour.

lilac?

harry2 · Post by **harry2** » Fri Jun 05, 2009 11:26 am

I knew you would get it Isty. Month is the answer I have, though several words don't rhyme with colours.

Henry Orenstein was a toymaker who convinced his boss to start mass-producing Transformer toys for kids. The rest, as they say, is history.

He also registered over 100 patents. Which invention of Orenstein's - closely connected to the gambling world - is very well known today?
