GALINA= gal...young girl...gall.. insect....in.a.. ???..in.. na..navy? ??? ???

Smooth seas? Calm seas? Well Galina does mean 'calm'.

galina · « **Reply #222 on:** November 24, 2011, 13:37:56 »

Is this about Greek mythology? The nereid nymph Galene is the goddess of calm seas and a nymph is an immature stage that hasn't undergone metamorphosis to become a full insect yet. I think, it might be me :) I hope so ;D

Yayyy, top form Galina ;D

galina · « **Reply #224 on:** November 24, 2011, 18:15:34 »

Loved the clue. There is always some Greek mythology - was only a matter of time :D

The lists are simply fab, the choice is brilliant. Thank you JayB. I may be some time ............................... ;)

Lol, Galina has sent me her list and also a Clue.

Although I know the next person, I can't get it from the clue so I'm off for a google :o

Was deadly nightshade partly to blame for the banshee wailing?

goodlife · « **Reply #227 on:** November 24, 2011, 21:40:56 »

Sounds like lyrics for some song.....

Jayb · « **Reply #228 on:** November 24, 2011, 21:47:47 »

But what one? ;D

goodlife · « **Reply #229 on:** November 24, 2011, 21:59:37 »

Huh..do I really start to dig that one out.. ::)...I'm not even sure if it lyrics..Manic street preaches has some wacky lyrics..so suppose anything could be found in them.
Yes..my guess for the clue is manics... ???

So very nearly there and you guessed the right person too. But why this song title?

Spot on! Gold Star!
Belladonna is the botanical name for deadly nightshade.

Those are probably my packets. I learnt by looking at the folds on one someone sent me; it's quite easy.
