Yay! Really sorry for being so absent :-( Got home from work early because I'll still ill, and promptly fell asleep for three hours because I was so exhausted.. I was only meant to be having a 30-min lie down before going shopping for dinner ingredients :-P

France and Mexico cos they're also countries?

I dunno, this is tough.  If RR keeps naming countries and nationalities we're going to have trouble...

Well, a centaur is a creature from Greek mythology.

Ah good call, I didn't see that one.
I have no idea what else.  It probably isn't France or Mexico, because if "they're countries" were what RR was going for, it would have to be both of them.  (Unless he wants the "France is closer to Britain" connection.)

Nothing else on there has anything to do with Greece, that I can see. 
I dunno.  Soldier, maybe?  Lots of fighters in mythology.  But then Revolution is equally good.

Ah, I'd missed Note entirely on my first look through, and was trying to decide whether it could be Hotel. The other option is Moscow, but I'm arriving at that idea through personal info I know about LL, so I'm not sure whether he'd pick that as a clue or think it might be invalid.

Oh yeah, I could just start guessing the first two, rather than waiting for gkrieg to wake up!

Let's try kiss!

Alternatively, fire can be romantic.. thinking more cozy fireplace rather than explosions and arson, anyway :-)

Did you agree that clues to do with personal info are likely to be out?

Ya I think that it would be too much of a stretch for this clue.  I think personal clues are fine, but I don't think it is true in this case.

I would think hotel is the best one left.  I just don't get the fire one.  I mean I get it, but I don't think it comes to my mind before fire or note.

Okay.. I think it's a really cunning clue if I'm understanding it right, LL, but I'm not going to risk it, since I can't explain without saying too much! Or I might just be completely barking up the wrong tree anyway :-P

Let's go with hotel, since I think that's what gkreig's agreeing with me on for the final one :-)

D'oh! Sorry :-( Guess I'll find out after the game whether my interpretation was right after all... sorry to waste such a clever clue if it was!
