I'm sorry I haven't a Clue

[DTCwordfan]

Time for Sunday night fun - it really isnt a quiz or media as to AB categories - heard this programme today from Whitby on Radio 4and wondered what you fellow ABers could create:

Come up with words or phrases that have a new meaning. For example,

Eliminate - Lemonade in Yorkshire
Membership - A boat with some interesting different shapes
*** - Mexican traffic lights
Norfolk - A bad night out in Yorkshire.

or

Eds AB Blog - Answerbank diary for stammerers.
Gromit - Woolly Thinking - or put a hole in AOG's "logic"

Over to you.....
