Why yes. Go ahead on the next one

So it's pretty simple then, it's not ... ...

New one:

Marine cry (5,4)

Yes, I was just looking for a rhyme without realising it was a puzzle too. This one had a nice Aha.

Well, I'm trusting that it (for every boat) is a clue to Per U. In other words, it's a Peru Clue.

Ahhhhhhhhh, the &lit indicator in clue 1 should have made this more obvious. But I overlooked it anyway. I usually really like self-referential clues. Including this one.

Pretty much the opposite of that

So after Practice What You Preach this one should be quite simple.

I N R S

Oh, well. Yes of course it is.
But I've always resented when I'm told to do myself what I've advised others I reckon they should do.

Best I have so far is Pay What You Please

I'm pretty sure I will know it after I've been nudged into remembering. The trouble is, there are too many silly alternatives that come to mind first, like Pirates Walking Yellowbeard's Plank.

How about Peru Crew, as in Per U-(boat)?

This is harder than the Rhyme game one. The only thoughts I can make merelyget as far as
P... While/When/With You/Your P...

Or silly things like Please Water Your Plants

Walk backwards at least 4 metres/10 steps without having to explain why. (Eg leading someone by the hands out into the dance area, or whatever reason makes sense)

Insert comment about how this is true of every puzzle ever.

Did you try this one as well? Or have come across the technique? What did/do you think?
I like it as a pretty secure cipher with a simple method, that can be embelished in many ways.

Yay finally! Well done!
But once you had the method sorted out, it really was a lot simpler than you made it at first, wasn't it Lumpybum?

Now I am stuck with yawl and y'all

Aha. My buttocks would be scarred and blistered then.

But then the PPE required due to the asbestos renders Jack less nimble and quick, so the chances of achieving the task are greatly reduced. I don't know why it would be good to try it anyway.

Please go on
