Has anyone seen my “Green Light and Regal Splendour” quiz/post? It appears to have disappeared.

    I did, Tim, and I responded. I don’t see it now either, though. Weird.

      Alrighty then, I will repost from memory as best I can. The gods of the blogs must have intervened.

      Did either of you, or anyone else, solve the quiz or ask for more or better clues??

    I think I solved the quiz, Tim. Is the Avon Theatre located in Christchurch, New Zealand? Don’t know what the third photo is, is it a current photo of the inside of the theatre? As an aside, when I was googling the theatre, I came upon an ad for the Avon promoting the showing of Dodge City!

      Yes, barb!

      How in the world did you get this so quick!?

      My next clue was going to be a photo from Monty Python’s Search for the Holy Grail, because the Avon was transformed into New Zealand’s largest sports bar, the Holy Grail Sports Bar.

      Here’s to you, barb! If only Monty Python had you on their hunt for the Holy Grail!

    Google once again gets the credit, Tim. When I googled avon j c williamson’s luxury playhouse, a page from a Christchurch newspaper came up, showing an ad from the theatre.

      Thanks, David. Perhaps I accidentally disgarded it while drafting another post? I don’t know. ..One thing’s for sure, though: barb answered this quiz faster than I can say ‘awesome green lights of Aurora Austrealis over New Zealand”

        Those are stunning green lights, Tim.
