Hi owllady, i'd like to say i am having a blonde moment but to be more truthful it is a white one. please can you explain the answers.

and doesn't it say in the rules for this quiz that questions should not be posted on Q&A sites until 2 April - and then only to ask for clues, not answers? What's wrong with having a guess or leaving a blank space?

2) Old music hall song "Oh Mr Porter what can I do, I wanted to go to Birmingham and they've taken me on to Crewe"
5) Oldham is a make of car battery (saying "I told'em Oldham"
Both are US Counties
Hope that has helped

Thank you boysinblue68, as you correctly point out I did ask nicely, on the front page of the quiz, for people not to ask until April 2nd and then clues only.
