Assorted quiz questions

[juliefer]

1. 'You're fired' (3,4,5) - one word in the answer is something to eat or drink

2. Top surgeon (4,6) - answer is a phrase or expression in everyday use.

The next two answers are both the names of creatures great or small:

3. It sounds lovely: great fun (4).

4. Meat is dispersed among company (7).

Thanks.

2. Spin Doctor - I gave this answer two weeks ago and I still like it!

3. Could this be LARK?

[juliefer]

Thanks to you both for your answers.

Sorry, crofter, I didn't see your previous answer of spin doctor and I like it as well. I'd thought of lark but it doesn't quite seem to fit the clue. It may well turn out to be the answer wanted so thanks for confirming my idea.

4) Chamois ? ( Goatlike Antelope )
Meat = HAM + IS + CO ( company )
Dispersed ( meaning anagram )
Hope you can understand it.
Val.

[juliefer]

Thanks, val. Brilliant answer as usual.

juliefer I agree with your general feelings about LARK - it's a bit weak. I'll give both of these some more thought if you like.

As for Spin Doctor - I only meant that I hadn't poached it from someone else - not that you should have seen it! At the time, there was some doubt expressed about its corrrectess. Not in my mind though! I like it!

[crofter]

I'll cross No 4 off my list then!
Isn't Valerie inspired, when she's on top form?

[valerieb1254]

Thanks crofter, you've me blush.
Val.

[valerieb1254]

Or even MADE me blush.

I answered this before for someone.
The sound of the lark is lovely and the other meaning of lark being great fun. So lark is lovely and also fun.
o-ice

Thanks o-ice, it looks like lark has to be the answer then. Sorry, I hadn't seen your earlier answer either.

Thanks granethan as well.

Thanks for offering further help, crofter. I've no doubt you're right about spin doctor - it fits the clue perfectly.

juliefer You don't seem to appear much on AB, but when you do it's always with a relevant point to make -and with a h**l of a punch! (Just a personal observation)
