I got Shepherd's Bush and DH got seven sisters (which I couldn't see for looking I have to admit). My favourite so far has been Hainault. Thanks for that. I hadn't got that one, but once you'd mentioned it I got it.
The ones I can't get are:
The rat on the path with what looks like cheese Can't get that either Thanks silvercar
The fish on the road Can't get that either
The Anvil and Hammer The anvil belongs to a smith
The Woman with the Beers She is a maid, and the beers are ale
The Man with the TV with what looks like a rope round it Can't get that either
The Dog with the green face and cake The dog is Parson's Green, although I've no idea why. I just tried guessing every tube station with "Green" in the name. Maybe it's because clergy wear dog collars??? The cake is a separate station and I can't get it.
The four nuns They come from a convent
Bride on a hill with top hat She is getting married to a bone
The man with a gun on the roof shooting at the Lancaster The man is shooting mud. The Lancaster doesn't belong with the man but with the gate.
The tree with the crown It's an oak
The burning hole in the ground Can't get that either
The man in overalls watering the little tree. It's a bay tree.
All clues gratefully received...
Do those help?
I would also appreciate clues for
The dead pig
The woman with enormous hair - I have guessed this now but still don't really get all of the elements of it.
The rabbit in its hole
The broken drum
The well with a cube hanging over it
Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area. (Link permitted by forum team)
Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

The dead pig is recently dead. Think of the meat products in the foreground.
The woman with enormous hair is from the extremities of the Northern Line. It made me truly chuckle that one. Oh, and it is slang.
The rabbit: concentrate on what the hole is, not the rabbit.
The drum - you're nearly there, you just need a type of drum now (DH is a drummer and he got that one straight off, I was clueless).
The well - it's part of the title. Now you've just got to work out the other half. There are a few options but one will work. I couldn't blow it up big enough to see what it was.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

Ugh! I got caught out by a very similar red fish in a detective computer game years ago. Thanks for helping. Do you know anyone who's bereaved?

I got the burning hole just after typing it. Two more to go, the rat and the man with the telly.
I still can't get what you are all telling me about the rat, I'm missing the point sorry!
Where's my manners?

The rabbit: concentrate on what the hole is, not the rabbit. I had got stuck wanting it to be Warren Street, and hadn't noticed the right answer when I was searching the map or a list of tube stations. (Have never lived any closer to London than Oxford, so not very well up on tube stations without the map or list.)
The drum - you're nearly there, you just need a type of drum now (DH is a drummer and he got that one straight off, I was clueless). Thanks. Got it now.
The well - it's part of the title. Now you've just got to work out the other half. There are a few options but one will work. I couldn't blow it up big enough to see what it was. I'd tried doing that, but again, didn't notice the station on the list/map, and wasn't aware it existed until I tried going through the list again. I think it's a stock cube.
Thank you.

Ignore the rodent, its to do with what he's eating.
Likewise don't pay attention to ths man, concentrate on what he's holding.0 -

All the sss's gave you the answer to the cake a page back, but if you don't want the actual answer, think of types of sponge.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?
