You can have a Mackerel sky

[susanwilton]

No. 8 could be Planters Punch

[Big Jenny]

Yes, lynnben, but a mackerel is a fish, not a bird. I had already thought of that one, but I don't think it can be what we're looking for.

26 = Corniche (coast road on the French Riviera)

[gen2]

Lynnben is correct.

Mackerel Bird (Zool.), The wryneck; -- so called because It arrives in England at The time when Mackerel are in season.

vauxhall was an old London garden

[boxer]

wyvern is a mythical beast

[Big Jenny]

I stand corrected, lynnben and gen2. I have never heard of a Mackerel bird, although I have heard of a wryneck. Thanks for your help, both.
