Hello to adventurers old and young.

I've been lurking on this group for awhile, enjoying the ebb
and flow of conversations, and the practical dispensation
of info related to text adventures.

Like many, I've been sucked into that fiendishly clever game,
curses.z5, and have been humbled.  It's frustrating to have
a solution staring you in the face but not having the faintest
idea how to solve a puzzle.

I'm at the ~80 pt level and need a few hints.

I can't seem to find a way back into the house from the garden.

I've been to: the museum, the priest's hole, the unreal city,
dreaming, the garden, allison's room,as well as the rest of
the unlocked portions of the attic.

I've collected lots of nifty things, found out how to use lagach,
and been done in by the druids.

I suspect that there is more than one way back in to the house.
Can someone give me a few clues? 

thanks,
--rstone@atl.com aka rob stone, rob (to my friends), and TURN OFF
THAT COMPUTER and COME TO BED (to my wife)...
