A little puzzler I've used on my quiz nights. All these are clues to place names in the UK.

For example - "all breakfast still on your plate" would be Nuneaton - (get it?)

Just for a bit of fun so don't put your answers on here to give everyone a chance. I'll put them on at the weekend (if I remember! wink)

1. What DickTurpin tells you to do with your money
2. Changed your locks? You'll need one of these.
3. They're all a bit creepy round here.
4. Take the skin off that orange
5. It goes over what goes under
6. Mandelson's football pitch
7. A place of Joy ( and Babs and Teddie)
8. Stop and summon the dog here
9. Neil and Christine's place
10. How an Hawaiian might greet a Scotsmen
11. Their chips are just silly
12. What Harry did to his older brother
13. Just the place for Grandad to buy his woodies
14. Got a big bottom? You'll need these when you go to bed!
15. Stands before field and draw(er)s
16. Do they look after their cod stocks here?
17. It's the 1st March every day here
18. Islanders standing around chewing the cud
19. Go here to get more 'ealthy
20. They do swear and cuss a lot here (my 'ansum)!

OK - as they used to say on Final Score (back in the days when 22 blokes were allowed to kick the hell out of a small spherical object and sometimes each other!) - " If you don't want to know the answers, look away now".

At least don't read the next post yet. smile

Anyone fancy another?  I've built up a stock over the years - haven't been able to run any quiz nights lately and I'm getting withdrawal symptoms! laughing
