Always a good idea to take the lens cap off before you take a picture, Eric.
What a Strange Brew there was in this week's pile of Snapshots. Well done for guessing them - you all did Wonderful Tonight (well, yesterday morning). By my reckoning, it was a dead heat between Lynchie and Alyson this week, with 3 points each... though I'm tempted to award the tie-breaker to Lynchie for his amazing claim to fame at being the first journalist to ever write about The Sutherland Brothers & Quiver. (And that is why you ought to have your own blog, Lynchie.)
10. Rabbits in discount top hats for lil' Jeff and Bev.
Pulling a rabbit from a discount top hat would be a Cheap Trick.
Jeff Lynne & Bev Bevan were founding members of ELO.

9. Aston Mastermind in a muddle over cold-blooded murder.
"Aston Mastermind" is an anagram of Stina Nordenstam. Yes, Martin, I've started doing anagrams now... but only when I can't think of any other clue!
Stina Nordenstam - Winter Killing
8. Kiefer, Angus and Rossif come over all wobbly when hugged by a Scottish queen.
Angus and Rossif are the brothers of Kiefer Sutherland.

7. It's going to be a fine day - not that the cantaloupes will see it.
A fine day will have no rain.
A non-seeing cantaloupe would be a Blind Melon.

6. A quiet explosion at the hairdressers.
A quiet explosion would go Shhh-boom!

5. Jacques gets wet at the end of summer.
Jacques Cousteau told many underwater adventures.

4. What a dunce cap has, in the castle of a conqueror, smashing an organ.
A dunce cap has a D on.
William the Conqueror built Warwick Castle (well, he told other people to build it).
Smashing an organ would make you a heartbreaker.
Dionne Warwick - Heartbreaker
3. An Idle God can't find his sunken ship - and he's looked literally EVERYWHERE.
Eric Clapton is known as "God" (only he knows why). He still can't remember to take his lens cap off before he takes a photo.
Eric Idle is just a very naughty boy... but if he'd lost his sunken ship, he would be wreck-less.

2. Threes. A Carol for Carol?
Three is a magic number.
A carol is a hymn.

1. Join the line to the backwards toilet, shouting for a raincoat.
A backwards toilet (WC) would be a CW.
If you were shouting for a raincoat, you might be giving your mac a call.
A line of vehicles is called a... go on, you can do the rest.
I Feel Free to do this all again next Saturday, if you'll join me...
