ALL ANSWERS HAVE A COLOUR/COLOR IN THEM
You may need the answers to these that are left!!
2. Cue to bag seven (3,5) I have no idea what to even start searching on to get started with this one. Just give me the answer.
4. Where Hollywood actors aspire to appear (6,6) I want to say RED CARPET but that doesn't fit. OH.......how about the GOLDEN GLOBES.
9. Rarely seen in the wild but often installed at fairs and fetes (5,8) Okay, I just googled "fetes" to see exactly what they were and there was a mention of white elephant sales and that fits the number of letters so how about WHITE ELEPHANT. If that isn't right just give me the answer.
11. Dissected melon on beach with Scottish musicians (5,10) This one should not be that hard but it has been killing me. I've gone through list after list of scottish musicians and that hasn't helped any.
15. Shoe boat race participant (6,4) I've never heard of shoe boat races. Just give me the answer.
16. An output by thirteen (5,10) Totally clueless here. Just give me the answer.
17. A proceed with caution tale about a telescope (5,8) I'm tired of googling for hints. Just give me the answer. Man, I'm usually better than these at these games.
18. Vegetable for a bonded irate Cubby director (6,8) I was stuck on this because I was searching on a US movie called Cubby. Then I found there was a UK director named Cubby BROCCOLI so I'm sure broccoli is the second word. I want to say YELLOW is the first but I've never hear of yellow broccoli. I think some can be purple so how about PURPLE BROCCOLI? If wrong, just give me the answer.
22. Metaphorical panacea deadly to changelings (6,6) This one shouldn't be so hard for me. Just go ahead and give me the answer. I've wasted enough time on this one just to be embarrassed when I see the answer. LOL
