Thank you for those, but where on earth did you get the answer for the spinach one?

7. was the answer Bigfoot gave yesterday - me Tarzan you Jane (one I posted on the earlier thread)

Actually 2 earlier threads on 3rd Jan as one was only seasonal. That was where I started on these.

As for Froggie, it was a favourite from my childhood so it rang all the right bells, but was answered on the thread before me.

Yes, I now have the bread one.

Ah OK I missed the earlier threads.

Thanks for that one - this just leaves me with the very tricky army and bread ones (49 and 58)

I think 58 ends in "... wedge of crusty bread and butter", and thought w-c might be "well-chewed" but I could be wrong on both points

I found it in my Collins "Dictionary of Quotations" luckily. Check out Thackeray's poetry.

Unfortunately the army one wasn't there, so still searching.

Wow, Siamcat - that is well-obscure! Well done, you star (and undisputed champion at this!)
