No letter counts?

It's a 'no asking' quiz as giggypoo knows'; it's better IMO to say that then people can decide whether to help.

The threads from other posters  have given letter counts for this quiz.

You might get more answers on Q&p gigapoo. It's also helpful to give the name of the quiz, where to source a copy, closing dates, etc

I can't think of any hints except I'd expect purr to be in one of them. It'll be easier with letter counts.

Is clue 3 correct please?

The only synonym for 'tell' that gives me anything is  'grass'. Can then add 'purr' . Can only think of grass keeper but that doesn't sound like a career and I can't get Key from Tom.

Purr sounds like per

[newmodarmy]

4 may end in 'keeper '

 

[newmodarmy]

Yes lozz, got that but grass+ something for tom(cat) + per.

Grasper isn't a job and doesn't explain why clue says Tom

Shop (tell) kee per(purr).  Or shopper?  Secret shopper?

[newmodarmy]

Shopkèeper is better.

I still can't see where KEY / KEE sound comes from. HE yes but not the K

[newmodarmy]

A gib is a tom cat.

Is shop gib purr close enough to shopkeeper?

Maybe the O P will tell us the letter count.

[Old_Geezer]

Probably needs moving to the quiz forum.
