Title: Sir George Martin little game
Post by: raxo on January 01, 2006, 10:45:37 PM
You Know His Name (Mix Up The Letters):

Try your hand at anagram-making! Jumble the letters of Sir George's name and see what you can find.

You can choose GEORGE MARTIN or SIR GEORGE MARTIN
e.g. George Martin: rare GeM got in

Funny results!  :D

P.S. I'm posting some of them ... if some of you know them please let the others play...  :-/  ;D

The Westin Hotel in Sydney, Australia, where Sir George launched "Playback: The Illustrated Autobiography of George Martin", is ideally situated in a heritage building on the corner of George Street and Martin Place.

The name George has its origin in ancient Greek, meaning something like "farmer, man from the country" LOL

OI! Ggreat name is actually an anagram of George MArtin. I was not speaking about your spelling mistakes. Even though I also spelt George wrongly. lol

I have only just realised the mis-understanding. lol

Ok, then ... you only must use "signor" word instead of "Sir" the rest of the anagram ... well, it could be in Worldish if you wanna so.  ;D

I am Signor Regret (not really Sir George, but Mike Smith, the producer from Decca, who turned the Beatles down!).


You got it!

This is the end of the game, I guess.
