This may not be very popular but after struggling to remember the title of The Citadel” last night (something on TV jogged my memory in all but the book title!)
It’s along the lines of the 3 word game, here we go:
Once upon a time..........
The Citadel

El Cid

Maybe I didn’t explain my idea very well, sorry and thanks CLKD, here goes!
Once upon a time........
The Citadel (and) El Cid (got together with) Black Beauty........

With the Hitchikers guide to the galaxy

-
And, The Thirty Nine Steps it took to get there ...

.....could almost have been The Death Of Me

Puts me in mind of Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey...
-
(Love Steinbeck's writing Joaniepat, putting that one on my list)

-
(Good one Befuddled, saw that on Broadway, NY)
Did he hear The Call of the Wild?...
-

Yes, he did, he heard it from White Fang.....
-
when they went with....Boogie Up the River.
-
Into The Heart of Darkness ...

Thanks for that one Jp, i'd not heard of it before but sounds good. So does 500 mile walkies. And the one about the Pennine Way. Just googled Boogie by the River and found an audio version with Timothy Spall. Downloading now to put onto my bedtime mp3.
...........how dark is it in the darkness? Is it 50 Shades Darker?...
-
;D

(Befuddled, I think you'll enjoy Boogie :scottie:)
-
To the Murder Room
-
I think you'll probably find The Body in the Library....
-
Yes indeed! You'll find several Vile Bodies.

This narrative is turning into The Odyssey ...
-
What kind of odyssey? A space Odyssey?
-
or a train odyssey? Like ... The Great Railway Bazaar?
-
with The Girl On The Train?
-
Who was suddenly Gone Girl ...
-
Gone With the Wind.
-
...but only When The Wind Blows.....
Nothing like a bit of nuclear war to cheer us up!!
-
but make sure you are Under The Dome...
-
...it's a safe place to be in a storm, especially a really big one, the Storm of the Century....

Look out for The Cat Among The Pigeons !!!
-
The Dogs of War will chase that away!
-
War and Peace? ...
-
.... or War and Remembrance.....
-
Of the Poppy Field
-
The Field of Dreams if you hang about among the poppies for too long!

Yes, you'd be dreaming Under Milk Wood.

-
Or, Our Gentleman in Moscow...
-
Who comes From Russia, With Love
-
To see Anna Karenina ...
-
who is visiting Dr Zchivargo [sp]
-
At the Casino Royale
-
Was she there in The Pursuit of Love?
-
...or was she on A Wild Sheep Chase.....
-
I don't know, it was The End of The Affair
-
It was reminiscent of The Bridges of Madison County ...
-
But now she is in love with Our Man in Havana
-
Actually it was,Much Ado About Nothing
-
I suppose All’s Well That Ends Well ...
-
...but we all know that You Can't Keep a Good Woman Down...
(I'd recommend this one if you like Alice Walker, The Color Purple. Short stories she wrote about 40 years ago. Really good.)
-
The Time Traveller’s wife was a good woman ...
-
She liked to wander through The Secret Garden

Like Elizabeth and Her German Garden

In the Presence of the Enemy
-

-
No you’re likely to catch Portnoy’s Complaint ...

As an aside: what does the Gruffalo smell like?
A charity for the blind and partially sighted has produced a scent kit to accompany popular children's storybook The Gruffalo.
Guide Dogs UK has created a kit of nasal inhalers to represent the Gruffalo and the four creatures who meet him, Snake, Fox, Owl and Mouse.
Mouse smells like cupcakes, Fox has the scent of freshly cut grass, Owl is a cup of tea and Snake has a smoky scent.
The Gruffalo has a leathery, farmyard smell evoking the deep, dark wood.
