Numbers and letters quiz

Not sure if this has been done before but I used to listen to this on the radio some time back. It can keep you thinking all day long.

You are given numbers and letters to a well known phrase, song, film or whatever and you have to guess what it is.

For instance:

24 H I A D = 24 Hours In A Day

or 3 T A L = 3 Times A Lady

The first person to guess correctly, then comes up with their own. I realise this could take some time if members are not around to answer but I'm willing to give it a go if you are.


I'll start with:

686 D I A M Y (Clue; A scientific fact)


No cheating.

Bit too complex for my tiny pea brain I think!

Er. This more a FACT. Yes a good idea to give a clue. See how it goes. Might have to be more specific.
