Wow we're on our 2nd thread.

Sort it out - shrink or learn.

Bits of the clue look like an anagram of Torres.

Terrence Chant · 03-09-2009, 15:30

As an aside, here were the 'final scores' of part one:

Terrence Chant 2,818
A-Friend 1,087

Not many amongst that list still posting.....

I wonder if our absent friends still read the thread.

I'm off on holiday on Saturday so I think a clue is now called for:

Footballer.

Not Torres scorer - but see above it is a footballer.

Ignazio · 03-09-2009, 20:08

Letters 6, 7

Ignazio · 04-09-2009, 09:14

Swedish

Terrence Chant · 04-09-2009, 10:13

I think it's Henrik Larsson but we're missing an 's' from the anagram fodder?

Going anywhere nice on holiday Ig?

Oh dear.

I thought it was two r's and one s.

You're right of course - first time I've come up with a complete anagram - and I cock it up.

Off to oz for a month - leave tomorrow.

Terrence Chant · 04-09-2009, 13:54

Wow! Have a great time

Nothing in front of the tree, so Hitler didn't look both ways

scorer · 04-09-2009, 19:15

Sport please.

Terrence Chant · 04-09-2009, 20:31

Football

Terrence Chant · 05-09-2009, 09:51

(4,5)

scorer · 05-09-2009, 14:11

John Terry?

Terrence Chant · 05-09-2009, 20:28

If you can make it fit the clue you can have it

scorer · 06-09-2009, 11:28

I can't its just a guess.

Terrence Chant · 06-09-2009, 11:33

Fair do's old boy........who said it was a male footballer anyway?

scorer · 06-09-2009, 11:47

Faye White (don't know how that matches the clue either)

Terrence Chant · 06-09-2009, 11:56

Correct!

Nothing = FA
(goes in front of) tree = yew
Hitler doesn't look both ways......both ways are L for left and R for right......remove L and R from Hitler and it gives you HITE

FA-ye w-hite

Pretty tough, I must admit....I wouldn't have got it!!

scorer · 06-09-2009, 11:58

Ages since set a clue, I'll make it a good one.

Just a mo.

scorer · 06-09-2009, 12:00
