Hi folks.

Sign back of object Rose designed = endorse. Back/end, Rose/orse. Nor sure why the word Object is in there (or am I making too much of this clue...)

Animal in Quebec has a bone in its neck there = caribou. 'A rib', fine, but where does the COU come from?

Song doesn't belong to the clergy = lay. I've not been able to find a connection between lay and song...

Many thanks.

Cou is French for "neck", the language that is mainly associated with Quebec.
