No8. Leaping animal with a church spire (8)
No21. Product of Germany (7)

Thanks for any help

No 8 Might be harebell .. if the clues are a bit obscure. Might be able to improve on that

Thanks Julie, that's all I could come up with but as you say it's a bit obscure. I've no idea about No21 though!

Have the other clues been er.. clever or as silly as my answer - bell doesn't mean spire.. and leopards usually leap. I'm going through my second book while ironing with the other hand. Might be back..

Fuchsia is named after the German botanist Leonard Fuchs. May be wrong, of course.

Germany is an anagram of the actress Meg Ryan, but that would be (3,4) and I dont know of a flower of that name.

Clues so far have been fairly straightforward eg. Prickly from Scotland (thistle)and Vehicle with a country (carnation). I'll probably go with Harebell but am at a loss with No21.

I like your fuchsia better than your Meg Ryan Mrs G! I had already run germany through my "cheater" and got nothing. I think you've got it - well done.

Thanks Mrs Grundy, I like Fuchsia think I'll go with that.

Thanks again to you both for taking the time and trouble.

Been thinking of HAREBELL. The clue says "with a church spire" and with a church spire you get a bell so am now sure that's correct.
