Castro your mind back 24 hours to yesterday's smoking Snapshots clues. I hope you didn't have to Fidel around too much to work them out.
I've only ever smoked about three cigarettes in my life, and each time I did, it was with the express intention of impressing a girl. And it never worked.
Caution: Cigarette Smoking May Be Hazardous to Your Health (and Self-Respect).
10. Inside the Boa Sisters.
Possibly the most obvious photo I've ever run here. The clue was academic. They haven't changed a bit. (Except to get more annoying.)
9. Sounds like you should send a message to Hank.
Text Williams!
Tex Williams - Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! (That Cigarette)
8. Gory sweethearts.
My Bloody Valentine - Cigarette In Your Bed
Sounds like a 70s Public Safety Film waiting to happen.
7. Crossroads handyman lays out the letters for male.
The Crossroads handyman was Benny. He's just learned how to Spell 'Man'.
Benny Spellman - Lipstick Traces (On A Cigarette)
6. Surround sound.
Dolby Surround Sound, that is.
Thomas Dolby - Close But No Cigar
5. Hounds of Love.
4. They're Abba-cum-Wham.
It's an anagram!
Chumbawamba - Give the Anarchist a Cigarette
3. Almond. Soy. Coconut. COW'S.
Cow's is the LOUDER milk.
John D. Loudermilk - Tobacco Road
That's the original. You may be more familiar with the Nashville Teens version (they weren't from Nashville and were mostly in their twenties), but the clue wouldn't have been as good.
2. 11 + 4 + Half the words we speak.
The 11th letter of the alphabet is K. The 4th is D. The words we speak are language. Half of that...
You could also have had any of the other songs on kd's smoking-themed LP 'Drag'. Or, to be honest, I'd also have allowed this...
1. How Shakespeare might announce he's just arrived at one of the country's biggest festivals.
O! Tis' Reading! I hope it's not another mudbath this year...
Otis Redding - Cigarettes and Coffee
So true about the Gallagher Brothers although you wouldn't catch them in that pose nowadays.
