Beau Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 This months competition is a bunch of anagrams. If you rearrange the letters you will discover some childrens television programmes. This may well reveal our ages, since there are programs from the 50's to the present day. When you think you have the answers, send them to me via a private message. Since I have my son coming to stay at the end of the month/beginning of August I'll give you till 6th August to submit your answers. As always there will be a cheque for £20 and a Fsf goody for the winner, with the runner up receiving a Fsf goody too. If I receive 10 entries or more, I will put all the names in a hat and the lucky winner will get a Fsf notepad. Good luck. 1. GET HARMONIC TUBA DUO 2. WAIST PAUNCH GAP 3. ELDER ALLOW THY WISH 4. BEST BLUE TIE 5. GENTLE CRASH 6. SEE MASTER SET 7. PEEL TUBER 8. DRANK NIPPY KEY 9. BEHOLD TRUE BIB 10. UPEND LADLE 11. CHATTER WITH WHOM 12. MADE SURGEON 13. FUN MUM FIT HEEL 14. SHORT AGENT 15. LESS TRUCK BOB 16. NOT PAST MAP 17. LOYAL CHOPS 18. DASHING MAN WAIT FOR FOOL 19. GINGER HALL 20. SIR JOIN DAME And I ought to put out a disclaimer - I haven't had chance to double check these so there may well be a mistake! Apologies in advance if there is. Rules: 1. Only one entry per member is allowed 2. Moderators can join in with the fun and answer questions but are not eligible to win 3. Closing date for entries will be Friday 6th August 4. The winner will be the person who has answered the most questions correctly 5. In the event of a tie for first place, these names will be drawn at random to determine the winner 6. Any complaints can be sent to Steve and any praise to me! 7. The rules may change at any time as or when I think of something I haven’t already covered. Quote

Guest Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 Good quiz, I love anagrams. All done and on their way, Beau Quote
HappyMaz Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 All done and on their way, Beau You're a bit of an over achiever aren't you, DDC? Quote
Guest Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 You're a bit of an over achiever aren't you, DDC? I'm just too damn good, Maz, you know me. Quote
HappyMaz Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 I'm just too damn good, Maz, you know me. What I love most about you DDC is your modesty and humility! If you were a children's tv character which one would you be? Quote
aliamch Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 Good quiz, I love anagrams. All done and on their way, Beau All done!!! It's gone 2am and I've still only managed to work out 8 answers! Off too bed sulking now! Karrie Quote
Guest Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 What I love most about you DDC is your modesty and humility! If you were a children's tv character which one would you be? Good question. There are a few people who would suggest that I am somewhat akin to Zippy from Rainbow - can't think why... Personally, I really couldn't say. You'll have to leave that one with me to ponder at greater length! Quote
Guest Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 (edited) I've got 3 to go!!! Grrr DDC beat me to it. Haha Zippy Now, number 15 - I have a tv programme but it's not a children's tv programme Edited July 15, 2010 by Guest Quote
Beau Posted July 15, 2010 Author Posted July 15, 2010 Already got 2 entries in. I really don't know whats keeping the rest of you. I'm intrigued Playplayplay as to what alternative answer you have! Thats the problem with anagrams - you can make all sorts of things if you look long enough. Quote
Guest Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 (edited) It has to be it...I'll give it a go Edited July 15, 2010 by Guest Quote
Sue R Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 Me and anagrams have an odd relationship - the answer either grabs me by the throat or I never get them Good luck everyone, and yes, to echo Helen - how do you do it?? Quote
Guest Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 I'm finished - really enjoyed it so thanks. Answers on the way. Quote
Pimms o'clock? Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 That'll make me number 4 then, just sent mine in. A found it a good trip down memory lane, hey, ho if only we could turn back time... Thanks Beau, what next? BMG Quote
Guest Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 I have spent hours on number 18 and still no joy. So I am wondering if it's something I've never heard of. Now I don't want to cheat but if someone would be kind enough to PM me the decade it is from it may put me on the right track and stop my head hurting (and it isn't telling me the answer). (Hides from Beau) Cheeky ppp If you don't ask......... Quote
HappyMaz Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 ok got bored - sending mine in You've done 18 then? Quote
Guest Posted July 16, 2010 Posted July 16, 2010 Ok, think I've got them all now - going to give it a go! Quote
