I can't be first...Can I?

You certainly can. Can I be second...Can I?

Well done Yummy! Thank you BHP and Rebecca. At last something for us to devour.

Baby names! Oh...both adorable and sad when you remember Sinead's/Nina's departure

I can't see anything!! I'm visually challenged!!



I do see pencils and post-it notes. Sure those belong to Ann Clare Sawyer. Much alcohol (Love that one still wants to get smashed when supernatural)!



A cassette player? Really Can we get them a computer at least? lol



Thanks for the new blog!

Woo! Clues!

Ooh is that a list of names G&N had been mulling over - you know for Fuzzy?

Thanks Rebecca! At long last.



The girls names on the list, the first letters spell SPLODGE, don't know what it means though!

Jeez Louise!! My pencils were Unbrella's for drinks (BLIND AS A BAT!)



Post it notes? Books!! lol



Thank goodness I can make things larger!! (Yes twinnie I said it..lol)

Hmm Cocktail umbrella things. Party?

A room key. Someone unwelcome staying?

Cassette tapes. OLD cassette tapes?

Empty bottle of alcohol. Someone has been a bit depressed me thinks?

Saphire

Polly

Lorna

Orla

Diane

Gina



Then



Eve



What will the choice be?

I've typed up the names below, incase anyone has trouble seeing them. Don't look if you don't want to be spoiled...though...not sure why you wouldn't want to be...being here and all



moving on



Sapphire (that sounds like an Annie suggestion to me)

Polly

Lorna

Orla

Diana (?) [could be Dianna, handwriting makes it look like Dianaa but who knows]

Gina

Evie (?) [could just be Eve]



There are also some question marks drawn next to the names, along with a flower and a doodle which is hidden mostly by a rum bottle. No idea what any of that means

11. Hey Ewan, you've been quiet.



I might be mistaken but i think the last name is Ellie, not Eve.

Yay, new blog!



Orla is Annie's mom, right?

Oh, Ewan beat me to it ^_^



Also, trailing off the last 'e' in Evie/Eve is a fly.



This whole list thing strikes me as a very Annie sort of thing, but even if Nina doesn't make it through the birth, George would still be the one to name the fuzzy-thing, so maybe Annie is just helping. The doodling just seems quite Annie-ish to me

Orla was the cheating wife



Annie's Mum is Carman.

Ooooo shiney new blogg,



Great photo though

oooohhhh and the plot thickens! Love that bar area of HH - just want to hang out there for awhile!



now with that list of names, have we all been misled thinking the baby's name is Eve???? Hmmmm, is LT up to his usual tricks? something to ponder...

*arrives - with sofa* Oooh Well done Yummy! First on the new Blog!



Thank you Rebecca! You must be starved! Go and get something to munch on!



What's that big cushion looking thing hanging up?

@15 - Hey Fleem!



Nah, I think Annie's mum was Carmen. But in that same episode where Annie and her mum met again, there was a woman in Alan's audience (the psychic) called Orla (she had been married to one of Annie's 'ghosts in waiting', Jimmy)

I can zoom a lot on my 'puter and the bottom name seems to be Ellie and the name above is Dianna.



The cocktail umbrellas remind me of the Welcome Home from Purgatory party they threw for Annie. *sniff* I'm getting all misty eyed again.

17 -- yeah, just remembered the name not context. Ewan, you are brilliant with those details, they just escape me!

Splodge is the name of a comic character in the Topper comic. He was the last of the Goblins who couldn't be seen by humans and would play nasty devious tricks on the animals of the woods.



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splodge



Could this be a hint to the new supernatural? Maybe this is who is looking at George? Bit of a stretch i know but we've got Vamps, Werewolves, Ghosts and Zombies. Why not Goblins?

Oh shiny and smells like a polo Mint..... we know the rest. Bonjour pretty new blog. :)

@14 -BigBadDog You know you're right, it does look like Ellie now I think about it. Either that or just a distinctive 'v'



@17 -Ewan I concede, you're much too fast for me. I feel like I'm parroting you ^_^

24- Goblin! And I've bet 5 cupcakes on a Troll showing up.

Going to get the magnifying glass.... shurrup...

27 - An *invisible* goblin.

Bonjour RM! You know somewhere there is a teenage boy who has said that..lol

5 Days to go from now ready?

Indeed- happier times.. *sighs*

26, 27 & 29 Thats what i'm thinking too.



Could be too obvious but when you look at the list of names your eyes are drawn to the name spelt downwards. Whether it's Eve or Ellie it still spells

S P L O D G E.



I don't think that its a coincidence that the first letter spells that out.

Anyone else think "There's a troll in the dungeon!" when Manc said Troll?

could SPLODGE be a nafram or something, like a secret meaning. G- for george and gina.S for sasha

like every first letter is a reference to another character from the series???? or am i thinking to hard :s

I had a quick google of cocktail parasol packs, just incase the '144' was another clue, but unfortunately it seems that 144 is just a popular number for paper drink umbrellas to be sold in.



*goes back to the magnifying glass*

Is that a badly drawn Daisy on the list by the way?

34 Lol! I am thinking it now.



Perhaps S P L O D G E is another example of LT leading us up the garden path...again.

36. @ Seren i had thought about that too but i was worried i was already over thinking it with Goblins!



Rebecca, i'd love it if you could hint whether any of us are close. Too much to ask? lol

@Mistress Denton



-bows- Thank you. I'm of the CSI/Point-and-click game/Joss Whedon/Lost/etc generation, so to me *everything* is a sneakily hidden clue/easter egg.



Can't leave one stone unturned, nor one random paper parasol ungoogled

Arthur Weasley as Splodge the last of the Goblins?

42- well he has always had that magical vibe around him :)

The empty Key ring I am surprised nobodies commented on what that means - where is the Key?

42 Or Arthur Weasley as Splodge the goblin who has amnesia and believes he's a troll (you might be able to collect your 5 cupcake winnings after all Manc).

i looked at the poscode on the key ring and nothing even when i turned it around to try and make a word theres not much there either. also the colourful book in the background that says movie...something. could that mean anything ???

If that is a list of baby names that George is mulling over over it's heart-breaking...or it could be a list of hot ladies that Tom/Hal are inviting round for a party!

The bottom name looks like Evie to me as well but no doubt it got shortened to Eve.

As much as I am looking forward to Sunday, I'm not looking forward to finding out what happened to Nina (although there has been enough publicity, some of it accidental, to let us know) Heartbroken at the thought of Nina not holding her babe, and George drowning in despair.

....and I will miss Mitchell

CF62 3MJ

I'm gonna miss Nina the most. I liked the feistiness of her character. Plus Sinead was awesome

Herrick is on BBC1 right now! With a yorkshire accent. Must be a side effect of the staking.

46 48 It's definitely a Barry postcode...not that I googled it or anything...

What's in the tin? after all the ash tray is so far as we can see - empty.

The postcode on the keyring is fictitional, i just tried to go there on AA route maps, lol. It just says postcode is incorrect.



I think i'm taking this too far!



I need a cup of tea and a lie down in a darkened room!

There's a lot of dust everywhere as well, even on the cocktail parasol box. Though I suppose with the events of S3, it's not much of a surprise that no-one had much of a chance to do much dusting (or tidying away, the parasols still out from Annie's welcome home party?)

The bottle of rum is very prominant...



Anyone spotted the Robson Green cassette yet?!

Did you know that Sailor Jerry was the father of old-school tattooing. A true American Icon whose work is still revered today. This rum was created to keep his legacy alive!

Right, I'd love to keep theorising with all of you but my time is up so I must off! If I stay any longer I might be tempted to print off the picture at various levels of zoom and puzzle over them until the wee hours.



So good luck to all the Sherlocks still staring at the computer screen, I look forward to any new hints/theories tomorrow! Nos da!

I did so NOT google that @) Had the same thought aqua - thought it must mean something as it is sort of in your face.

I have zoomed into the picture and regarding the list of names, the name at the end looks like Ellie.

56. Sasha. Maybe the rum is there to remind us of Mitchells legacy



Ive got my show tomorrow, thursday and friday night so I wont be able to check up on the blog, will have to try to check.

55 A Robson Green cassette? I'll have to have another look.



56 Wikipedia? Not that I looked that up either...

Goodnight Seren, I've already zoomed the pic and rotated it, lol.



Think i'm trying too hard!

Herricks a Yorkshire tetley man! Expected his eyes to blacken, he still looks like

the evil one?....

Inch - hold on there!

I can't see actually it - it was mentioned in the S3 interviews and I thought it was funny!!



Although am now thinking about laying false trails as I haven't got a clue what the real one is...

60 Google :-)

Ah, Gina, a combo of George & Nina. Much better than Neorge!!. Oh, I am just SO excited! I may burst!

Isn't Orla the name of one of the ghosts hoping to contact a loved one through Annie & the psychic in series 2???

63 Lol! I was beginning to think you had superhuman visual acuity.



Wiki does say Sailor Jerry opened his tattoo parlour in Honolulu...perhaps the HH residents have it in their bar to keep their Hawaiian dream alive.

66 - Go to 17 and 21

Ive got a ichy foot

Oh yeah, thanks Ewan! You remember it all so well.

That's why they have me write the quizzes

I think the tin that Ewan referred to earlier actually says ROBSON (it's in capitals I'm not shouting) on the front.



Yeah Inch, the bottle has a Hawaiian dancer on the front.



I think I can hear Rebecca laughing her head off in the attic! Why would she be doing that then?

The 'Splodge' could also be S.P. Lodge? (grasping at straws, i'm utterly useless as guessing games)

66 - JOOOOS! *waving madly* Yay! Joooos on the Blog! *throws confetti*

69 - You shall be walking on strange ground Saffz (something my granny used to say when I had itchy feet).

Hi 74 Manc! I'm no good at these guessing games, I'm really not! I'll come back tomorrow to see what you've all deduced. 'night xx

74 -



*Trys to catch some"

76 - Night Jo! And I'm going to think about why a very large leather bag (?) is hanging up at the side of the bar? Was that there in S3?





x

78. I thought that was a lamp shade, albeit a very tacky lamp shade.

79 - Think it looks like a lamp Manc - it seems to have a metal pole and wire coming from it.

79 - Hello BBD - you're quicker than me - would that be great minds or village idiots then :-) Lets go for great minds, shall we?



What do you mean tacky - I've got one like that in the front room



(only kidding, haven't really).

Lol @ sasha, lets stick to 'great' minds.



I say tacky but in a kitsch cool kinda way, trying to find one for my kennel as we speak!

The ashtray does have something very small in it. What could that be?



Rebecca - stop laughing please.

Ooooohhh! Kennel is it? Fancy! I just hang from the rafters myself.

83. Yeah there is something in the ashtray, on closer inspection i thought it was a 'roach'.



Not that i know what a roach is of course, i googled it. *Ahem*



*Slowly backs out the room while no-one is watching!*

I think the ash tray want the real ash tray, who fell into a laundry truck behind the low..... oops, sorry, wrong theory. Bedtime methinks.

Ha Ha - 84



I say kennel, it's really more of a barkchelor pad!



Have i really been on here all day? Think i'm having reality withdrawals.



And i'm fast running out of dog related puns!

Ooh, I love the blog!

I felt ridiculously pleased with myself that I had worked out SPLODGE from the names. My money is still on Gina.

Cocktail umbrella sticks are quite pointy, so maybe this is their reserve stake option. The vamps would be distracted by the bright colours and swirly parasols, then *poof* and another one bites the dust.

Evening all

Ooooo clues I'm rusty and have a tendency to go off on random tangents but here goes

The place is very dusty (if anyone blames Mitchell I'll cry)

Beaumont ? Possibly Scotch?

The Original Sailor Jerry Rum??? Not sure why but it got my attention

Cocktail parasols - very small but that's alot of mini stakes

The list of names possible baby names but the flower doodle at the top looks a bit like a Daisy and there are wiggles at the bottom could they be a reference to waves? A reference to those coming from overseas?

Room key very random this one but if you read it backwards JM3 ? John Mitchell original 3 but I'm not sure about the last bit.....

Like I said random tangents but I'll throw them out there

I think the keyring and list of names have spots of blood on them.

Right Bedfordshire for me it is too. Night bloggers!

Orla or Horla



H P Lovecraft wrote

Relating the advent in France of an invisible being who lives on water and milk, sways the minds of others, and seems to be the vanguard of a horde of extra-terrestrial organisms arrived on earth to subjugate and overwhelm mankind, this tense narrative is perhaps without peer in its particular department.



and later was inspired enough to strat his own mythic Ctulluh...



for what it is worth, Orla ; with an H is in French a fantastic creature who is invisible, Guy de Maupassant wrote a novel about it

the creature drives him mad , but can drink,, his body is not wholly immaterial, and the creature slowly but surely drained his energy, but it is not a vampire..



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Horla

Evening all. My what a day, and so much speculation! Rebecca has certainly arranged things to be very entertaining for her the next few days!



A few observation about the pic (lappy only has one zoom option)



(and so begins the lengthy post - promise to be shorter next time)



1. Sailor Jerry - Prominent place. Was this what Hal was drinking in his prequel? Were they on a Caribbean Island and he acquired a taste? Does it belong to someone else from one of the Islands. Is there a clue to the ancient scrolls on one of the islands?



2. HOWEVER, the bottle obscures whatever is drawn on the pad to the right of the names list, and whatever the multiple question marks are referring to....a face of some kind - perhaps the new supernatural?



3. List of names: last seems to be Evie. Not convinced baby's name is Eve. LT is nothing if not one to lead us astray and then do the opposite of what we expect.

Sapphire - significance to Annie bcs of Owen. Sapphire and Steel. Hmmm.

Orla - significance to Annie bcs of psychic.

Gina - significance to George.

Who do the other names have significance to and why?

Sapphire is the oddity among the list....what exactly does it refer to?



3. the key ring - yes, @ewan, where is the key. Who has it. What was it to? A room, a special room, a secret entrance? Did George take all the keys to the attic so no one can get in?



4. Cassette tapes - why? cassette tapes are from what, 1970's? Who did they belong to? Hal and Leo? Or is it possible they are recordings made by someone who was putting together clues as to where the ancient scrolls are?



5. rum from an island.

Orla's dead husband was scuba diving.

there was filming at the water.

Polly - as in Polly want a cracker - parrot - the bird on ships

Dianna - Roman goddess Diana (moon and the hunt) - one of triad, a second being Egeria the water nymph. the third was of the woodland

Lorna - Lorna Doone? set partly in Somerset - wasn't that where Tom's family was from?



hmmmmm....many things to ponder....

That is lot of good points Sunny. Thinking about them.



1 - Hal didn't have a Caribbean accent however Leo did - could represent his friendship with another werewolf.

2 - Sapphire Annie is the type to believe in birthstones Sapphire is for September is that when the baby is born or was it when Nina was born?

2 - Plus what is the flower?

3 - Or the key to a problem needed to be solved?

5 - Jimmy was driving in a car.

"It was him that died in that car accident."

anyway good night and thanks again for the notes.

hi ewan! Ahh, you're right, of course - Jimmy was driving. but wasn't he in scuba gear? Or am I thinking of a different ghost?



1. yes, Leo had Caribbean accent...but where did the prequel take place? what was Hal drinking?



2. interesting thought on birthstones. hmmm.



and while we're focused on the right side of the bar, what's going on on the left side? What's halfway up next to the doorframe?

The photographer wants us to focus on the sharp clearness of the bottle, lamp shade (?), key chain, ashtray, and notepad.

but what's out of focus?



the flower indeed...



seeing lots of things that rep water....even the cocktail umbrellas - drinks on the beach...rain....protection from the weather...beach umbrellas...hmmm.

95 - night! loads to ponder and discuss!

I couldn't see the pic in detail last night on my android but it's great seeing it in its full glory this morning after clicking on it. Then I read all your excellent theories and sat here nodding as usual - I like the SPLODGE theory.

My hope is on the empty bottle of rum and wily old Captain Sparrow appearing - but then that's always my dream! I'm sure the rum has a connection, though it could just be the Honolulu one. Or tattoos?

Good Morning Gingernut - gosh you're bright and early! Good Morning Bloggers! Good Morning Rebecca!



Off for another look at pic - my eyes are still watering from last night. Sunny - looked and looked at left hand side of pic for ages last night. It's all too fuzzy (!) to make out but I shall try again this morning - just incase :-)

Rum= West Indies=South America
