St Andrew's Church Epworth. C/d 23 April. 'sounds Like' Quiz

[hellywelly4]

Missed this one - answers when spoken sound differently to when written and make other word(s)

26. Egyptian King - 7 letters (Pharoah?)
Surrounded by water - 7 letters (islands?)
Answer is two words, no number of letters given

I have seen answer given as Faroe Islands, but that would mean the second word is still islands
which hasn't happened with the other clues.
Difficult to explain if you haven't seen the quiz, sorry.

Oops - just found another one right at the bottom of the page.
17. Verrucas - 5 letters (Warts?)
Two score - 5 letters

Answer is three words.

I understand what you are saying but it must be right.

Whats for tea

[hellywelly4]

Just got No. 17 that was quite easy compared to some of them.

I think it has to be Faroe Islands, after all islands are surrounded by water as in the clue.

Can you help with
5. A rule(3), jump(4), beer ingredient(3) = 2 words
Assume beer ingredient is hop. Have seen lollipop suggested, but it’s one word.
25. Overlook(4), flog(slang)(4), pull(3) = 1 word.
Thanks

Mamya, I did think that but I don’t get the middle clue. I get miss and toe.

[Mamyalynne]

Miss sell tow

[angie55]

Thanks Mamya, I was thinking of flog as in hit!

[hellywelly4]

angie - on my entry form the answer for No. 5 is only one word

25 - Miss, sell, tow

[angie55]

Hellywelly, it’s definitely 2 words on my sheet.

[Mamyalynne]

It's 2 on my sheet.

I have written,

Lolly Pop (Lollipop)

[hellywelly4]
