2. Cashier/ you gave parietal for another clue. Could be Clue 2.
anagram - ie (that is) part for some - al for aluminium

[TheWinner]

No. 2 is parietal.
that is = i.e.
aluminium = al
some = part

[cashier]

Makes sense Hazlinny. It's a good job you can work them out, as you said, they are not easy clues.

1. Iffy -Femur Fem for mother and UR for city though does not seem to be in Romania!

[TheWinner]

thought we'd finished.
1. my guess is Malar
mother = ma
Lar is a city but I don't think its in romania, but LAR are initials for the romanian airline (i think)

[JJ109]

probably parsed as
Ma (mother)
L.A. (city)
R (omania)
