When it comes to Saturday Snapshots... Everything I Do, I Do For You.
Yesterday was pretty much a two-horse race between Charity Chic and Rigid Digit. By my calculations, RD snatched a half point victory. Well done to Chris for starting us off and C for mopping up. You guys definitely played it till your fingers bled...
Here are this week's answers. Please Forgive Me if I made any obvious mistakes.
10. Tiny tots love sweets, short marsupials wager.
A short marsupial would be a 'roo. That was having a bet.
The Rubettes - Sugar Baby Love
9. Frankly rubbish bench-pressing.
Frankly rubbish would go in a Sinatra trash-can.
The Trashcan Sinatras - Weight Lifting
8. Calydonian queen & summer kebab chase Billy Joel's Number One.
Althea was the queen of Calydon in Greek mythology.
Donna Summer. Doner kebab.
Bily Joel's Number One was Uptown Girl.
Number One is the top ranking.
Althea & Donna - Uptown Top Ranking
...and ting.
7. Van Gogh's DNA tells us his favourite Genesis song.
Vincent's genes say, "Mama!" (the Genesis song).
Gene Vincent - Say Mama
6. Spinach for breakfast, broccoli for lunch and cabbage for tea will make you go mental.
Spinach, broccoli & cabbage are all greens, so that would be a Green Day.
If you went mental, you would be a basket case.
Green Day - Basket Case
5. Dame loses id est listening to Kate Bush song twice; needs sweets after that.
The Dame was Bowie, minus ie would be Bow.
Kate Bush sang Wow. Twice would be Wow Wow.
Bow Wow Wow - I Want Candy
4. Timely hedge warden is proven wrong as winter arrives.
A hedge warden is a hayward, apparently. (That's called 'research'.)
Timely would be just in time, of course.
If winter arrived, then Autumn would be over, thus proving wrong the idea that Autumn might last forever.
Justin Hayward - Forever Autumn
3. A glum liar ran off with James Dean Bradfield.
"A glum liar ran" is an anagram.
James Dean Bradfield is a Manic.
Laura Marling - My Manic & I
2. Wogan will help with your puncture, but only in the summer.
Terry would need a jack to fix your puncture.
Terry Jacks - Seasons In The Sun
1. Neil Armstrong brings home the bacon.
With apologies to any officers who may be reading this nonsense.
It's obvious by now that we Can't Stop This Thing We Started, so Saturday Snapshots will be back next week. Heaven!
I missed out yesterday - seems it was a tough one.
ReplyDeleteI can be quite handy with a mop when I put my mind to it...
ReplyDeleteFun quiz again. I'm not bad at this when we're talking recent music. I know 3-4 of these songs. The rest of the names demand further investigation.
