  1. 6: bleat It helps if you do crosswords. Bleat is an anagram of table.
  2. Is 19 squawk? I have no idea why if it is.
  3. A clepsydra was a water clock, basically a big tapered vase with a hole at the bottom to let the water out slowly. From the Greek for 'water thief'. Think of kleptomaniac and hydrous. The vase was wider at the top because the pressure was higher there and so the water would run out quicker. I don't think there's an animal that makes that noise though.
  4. Sorry, forgot to refresh. 17 is definitely howl. Howler (big mistake) without the er (hesitation)
  5. Hoot should be 13 (motorist) not 12.
  6. I've never smoked but I know plenty of smokers who've given up through hypnosis, or even hypnotherapy. The cost is guaranteed. I've also seen two very close colleagues & friends die from lung cancer. It was awful to watch and extremely painful for them. Good luck to you mate, if you really want to you can!
  7. 2: oink Lunchtime now, 6 grand kids arriving, good luck with the rest!
  8. 17: howl
  9. 13: hoot
  10. 4: whinny
  11. 9: bray
  12. 14: croak
  13. I guess number 15 isn't clepsydra?
  14. Understatement of the year (so far)?
  15. They were only asking for a loan. I wonder if they have any intention of paying it back.
  16. Hmm, I wouldn't want to go into the last game needing a win.
  17. A nice idea Georgy but there's one small problem. Ms Samantha thinks she's beautiful when clearly she's nothing special, whereas we all think that Saints are beautiful because in our case it's true.
  18. Unbelievable. Haven't they had enough public subsidy already? So far it equates to about £1 for each and every taxpayer.
  19. PL quality or not he's about all we've got right now.
  20. I seem to remember he scored some useful goals for us. Am I wrong?
  21. Sun shining on the infrared receiver?
  22. It's a shame that there aren't any more of those this season, then.
  23. Just a thought... Does the Russian Mafia's influence stretch to people who post on internet forums? I've always admired the Russian people for their hard-working dedication and rich cultural heritage.
  24. I thought the one he scored in his testimonial was better.
  25. Guly wasn't cheating. His standing right leg was caught from the side and you could clearly see it buckle in the shot from downfield. I'm surprised he wasn't seriously injured from it. Theirs wasn't a penalty though. A definite foul outside the box and their player was stumbling as he kept going although what Morgan was thinking when he waved his foot at him is anybody's guess.
