Of course its Niki Lauda that Bob was after

I am often in a hole. Button (hole)

I bloom in May. I will say Hawthorn as Hawthorn bushes / hedges flower in May (in your part of the world anyway).

We tend to babble. (I failed to answer this one as I didnt realise that babbling involved paddling.... and also a couple of body parts. )

I steal cows. George Russell (as in rustle, rustler)

Old folk need me. A Walker, Take your pick from Rob, Murray, Peter, David.

I do not hurry. Gone for a Stroll

I have three stripes. (Logan) Sargeant

PS Great questions. (At least I understood them this time!) Good work Bob.

Now that is just showing off - good work Mr Dick

I have had some impressive PM's from a certain 'Mike Crowe', who could be SSmith in disguise, or even our Antipodean 'Dick'!
That is the trouble with these things, you can never be sure if you are being groomed or trolled.

That prolific poster know as RBS.
Got his thoughts in a terrible mess.
He said 'What shall I do?
I haven't a clue,
So I suppose I'll just have to guess..

No disguise. Just an aged old bloke hoping to see out anither season in the temple of nostalgia called Castle Combe

Applying for a double entry at The Club, Dave, Dick, Shirley?

[bauble]

[No clues, work it out for yourselves.

Shallow waters =

Makes a paper smile =

Ill never settle down =

Slings as well =

A colourful bovine =

Reads like the end of =

Chuck's baby drew up in one =

Sounds like Hollywood loves them =

Go to town in Texas =

Grade A lover =

I lost weight =

And as it is a picture thread.

[bauble]

Please ignore my previous message - mistakenly pressed send without actually completing the puzzle!

Emeryson = E

TVR Griffith 400 = T

VW Beetle = V

Triumph TR6 = T

Lister-Jaguar Coupe = L

ERA E-type GP1 (with Duncan Ricketts driving) = E

Which gives us Sebastian VETTEL!

Thus spoke the ubiquitous SSmith.

Some are a bit obscure but
Ford
Sunbeam
Wanderer*
Arrows
Red Bull
ERA
Cadillac coupe de Ville
Star*
Austin
Alpha Romeo
Lightweight?*

[B]Thus spoke rising star of the Puzzle Club[ Mike Crowe B]


*1 I had Rover in mind, but Wanderer fits nicely. (And he calls me obscure!)

*2 I had OSCA but obscure again? Star?

*3 FIAT I - FAT

Now for some statistics;
Over a period of four days there were 2592 'views' of the Puzzle thread, averaging 648 per day. Only three people sent in answers, RBS, SSmith and Mike Crowe.

I wonder why such interest with so little response?

Note to Gerard; Mon Ami, I suspect there are many potential new members to the S Club if they were to break cover.

Oh! Thank you Mike for your very kind, and encouraging PM. Very much appreciated.

Are you trying to say that is not obscure?

In my original reply I meant that it was my answers which were a bit obscure. And probably, therefore, wrong.

Your apology is accepted, Mike.

I am probably like a lot of other members here Baub in that I always look at your puzzles in the faint hope that I may be able to answer, but being stuck at work 5 days a week with everyone else's problems to deal with (or so it seems), my poor depleted brain doesn't have the capacity, but I do like to look and see however.
(I was of course able to answer one of your quiz questions where you kindly included some of my own pictures, presumably to help me along, but I will not give up trying!)

I got the wrong end of the stick with this one - I thought it was name the cars and name the driver of each car! Not name the driver from the answers to the cars...

Naming the cars was possible, but I gave up before even starting to figure out who was driving them - except for the ones who helpfully put their names on the side!

Seems like my continued membership of the Stupido club is assured!

Not at all, Paul! If you go on with answers, which are in fact questions about question, all you say makes sense which could be against the rules. We like you, stay with us!

Simply choose the odd one out from each of the following lists;

Brilli-Peri
Scarponi.
Campari

Loxley.
Clyno.
Horch

Caen
Turweston
Ibsley

Marimon
Mieres

I'll be honest Baub that I don't recognise many of the cars and don't understand most of the answers when they're given. Looks like I'm going to have to change back to my Stupido Club avatar.

MM I am sorry to hear of your affliction, it is a very sad condition, brought on, I believe, by living in a damp climate for long periods. Maybe you should move, say to Bromham in Bedfordshire?
Another excellent way to improve your mental acuity is by purchasing the ten volume set of, "Solving Had Puzzles£ by Professor Noah Allott.. (An alias of a well know Puzzle Setter, and worth every penny of the purchase price)

Hope this helps;


NB. I attach a photo of the learned Professor.

He can't be that clever, he's carrying something you're supposed to ride.

Get back to mending cars!!!

[midgetman]

So that misprint in the book title. Is HAD a misprint of HARD or BAD?

It was taken at the beginning of his career, two years later he became an elephant driver.

Well, well my ploy has worked, I'm no good at puzzles cry Midge and Viv, but!!!

MM spots the deliberate mistake in the text (well done) then goes on to add a little witticism, demonstrating all of the talents needed to tackle any puzzle.

Viv, another whiner quickly spots the anomaly in the picture, and makes appropriate comment. The picture was chosen to invite amusing/insulting/ribald replies, and Viv could not resist, another example of talent under a bush.

No more excuses, I expect swift, accurate answers from both in the future.
Spot the Bauble.
