Puzzlement...
... a shake of the head, furrowed brow, moved on, "Oh for f***'s sake!", came back, uppied.
Good work.
Took me a while too!
.
Arf arf
I am SOOOOO gonna steal that.
Reminds me of the famous Times?
crossword clue.
Gegs (7,4)
Mine too
I laughed like a loon when I saw it
EXPLAIN PLEASE
I have never in my life got a cryptic crossword clue. Although gegs was in Drop The Dead Donkey so I know that one...
EDIT- I get it now.
Shouldn't it
be Gegs (9,4) or is there an alternative answer?
It should,
I obviously can't count today. Sorry.
Gegs (9,4).
Yes, it drove Henry mad on Drop The Dead Donkey.
For some reason, I can't stop humming Macca's 'Yesterday'..
Hee Hee!
I got that immediately.
Do I get my biscuit now?
Can I be the first to say
I don't get it.
What on earth are you on about here?
very good
- it makes perfect sense, though it took a minute for the penny to drop.
If "ABGN" is "BANG" out of order....
... then "GEGS" is....?
Damn it to Hades with a chaser of hell-blast
I had to google that. It's a belter.
"Damn it to Hades with a chaser of hell-blast"
sounds very Melchettian. Is it?
Nearly.
Fry and Laurie. They were running the best goddamn leisure centre in Uttoxeter.
As you read it you can hear...
... Fry's voice, can't you?
MARJORIE.
DAAAAAMN.
I'll never really know her...
not if i live to be a Chairman.
Damn her to hell - she's one hell of a woman!
They were better...
...When they were running that building society Sproggett & Sylvester.
My mum's favourite...

H etc
Water
E (13)
Is one a mate of mine told me a few years ago. I'd never have got it in a million years.
Can we have...
... a clue? Please?
Erm...
The answer is a 13 letter word that, if you split it into three parts and read them as separate words would lead you to the answer "e". That's the best I can do without giving away bits of the answer.
Is it...
... entomostracan?
I know.....
As no one else has posted......
Senselessness
Sense less ness - i.e take the letters n,e, s, s out of sense and you are left with 'e'.
one of my other favorites is -
ofofofofofofofofofof (10)
is that
"oftentimes"
spot on
certainly is.
Yeppity yep
It's an absolute stinker. Well done sir!
