My progress so far...

This is the afternoon of June 3rd, 1993, and you are in Meldrew House. 
You have so far scored 70 out of a possible 350, in 287 turns, earning 
you the rank of Dilletante.

The score is made up as follows:
     3 reading postcard          7 recharging torch
     7 exorcism                 10 opening secret door
     3 opening demijohn          3 using dumbwaiter
     2 exposing radio            2 sporting a daisy chain
     3 placating Aunt Jemima     3 uncovering battery
     4 mending the plumbing      8 finding sundry items
    15 visiting various places

I've been to the patio, seen the bronze mural, consulted the demon and 
had my forturne told.

Questions:

1.   How do I find the angel? Is it in the garden at the patio?

2.   How do I return from the museum and the worlds in the tarot cards?
I can read the poetry book but it's a one-trip ticket and I can't get the
book back.

3.   Is there anything I can do in the fireplace at the chimney?

4.   Are there any use for the magic words "shantih" and "lagach"?

That's all for now. Thanks for reading the message.
Post hints to the newsgroup or Email them to BH7113977@ntuvax.ntu.ac.sg

Thank you,
Teo Kwang Liak
