A quiz for you to try over Christmas.

I haven't done #10, 29 or 37 but have answers for the rest of them. I think that you'll know when you have them right and they'll be accompanied by a groan!

Thanks Looby I have printed it. Hopefully it will keep my mother quiet. (:twisted: )

Except for the groaning when she gets each answer!

Particular favourite so far is number 35 (I had a sneak preview yesterday over a four-hour lunch!)

Only four hours? I thought you two usually nattered for longer than that!

Well we did both have things we needed to do as well.

We have had a go at this today and have got most.of them. I think I have no 10, but not the other two you are missing.
I'm struggling with the first two parts of 9 , 23, 24 , 26, 29, 37, and we can't see what 36 has to do with Christmas, so may have it wrong.

Blimey, Giraffe, you've done loads more than we can. We are stuck on
4, 9, 13, 16 (although I think it might be FEZ ANT something!) 20, 21, 26, 29, 34, 35, 37, 38

I think 23 might bePROSE ECHO (Prosecco) and
24 is PLUMP HOOD DING

I now have all but #37.

I think that 36 is to do with Christmas in that all alcohol is appropriate then!

I agree with all you blacked out Bunnylump

For 36 we have SOW SPIN = SAUCEPAN ?

#10 Post by **LAT** » Wed Dec 25, 2013 2:28 am

I had that as Sow Turn (as it the wine Sauternes).

#11 Post by **giraffe** » Wed Dec 25, 2013 3:43 pm

That is probably better, but as I don't drink I was unlikely to get it!

#12 Post by **Scurra** » Wed Dec 25, 2013 8:37 pm

We got #37 (BALL/LOONS) but are stuck on 4, 26 and 29.

4 Kids Spar Tea

It's kept Mum nice and quiet.

#14 Post by **giraffe** » Wed Dec 25, 2013 9:12 pm

Has anyone got the beginning of 9?

edit: got this now

#15 Post by **giraffe** » Wed Dec 25, 2013 9:16 pm

Just got 26
BRAND - DEE - BUTT - TAR

#16 Post by **giraffe** » Wed Dec 25, 2013 9:23 pm

I'm also not happy with my answer for the last part of 10.

edit: Now happy with it.

#17 Post by **giraffe** » Wed Dec 25, 2013 9:42 pm

Just missing 29 now

I would quite like the beginning to be PROFIT (prophet) and the only 3 letter herbs I can find are BAY or RUE. Proceeds could also mean go forward. Chap I am assuming is Man rather than cowboy leg things or sore lips / hands although that might make the end SORE BAY / SORBET

#18 Post by **giraffe** » Fri Dec 27, 2013 2:34 pm

Did anyone have any thoughts on 29?

#19 Post by **Bunnylump** » Fri Dec 27, 2013 2:47 pm

No, sorry. But there are quite a few I don't have any thoughts on!!

#20 Post by **Looby** » Sun Dec 29, 2013 2:28 pm

for #29 I have FRUITS/SORE/BAY
