Dingbats Quiz - Thank you - I won!!!

booklover500

Thank you so much to all of you that helped me with this quiz - I just found out the I won - great Christmas present!

Merry Christmas to all of you


I'm not sure if this is the right place to post but a local charity is selling quizzes for £1 each for a £25 prize for answering Dingbats clues. (Which means I sadly can't share it as you have to have a paper copy)

I have most of the answers but I was wondering if any of you may be able to help me solve some of them if I put the clues I haven't worked out on here?!

Any help would be great but I'm not sure if it is appropriate for me to ask on here that's why i am asking first!

No harm in putting the clues up (some people like a challenge)

You might find answer bank helpful. There are often questions from quizzes like that on there, they may already be on there!

Thanks - I've had a look but I could see any and I found the site a bit difficult to navigate!

Thanks.

The are mostly phrases and sayings - I will try and write them as they are printed and describe bits that I can.

I can't get the spacing right but on all of the 2 and 3 word ones the words are lined up underneath each other

1. = eee €

2. nudist
streaker
stripper

3. HARE
HAIR
NAPE

4. BRAD PitT
WILLSMitH

5. MEANT

6. THE IMPORTANCE
OF BEING EARNEST

(The photocopy of this is bad but it looks like the CE is a bit worn away and there are slightly streaky bit behind them so I am wondering if is something to doing with burning importance)

7. This one is really tricky to describe but it is two dark crosses (like a first aid cross) next to each other the first has double lines going diagonally from the top of the left arm of the cross and the second has double lines going up from the end of the left arm of the cross. (It looks a little like Channel 4's logos!)

8. Methuselah C

9. exquisite

(something like exotic eyes maybe?)


10. P
U VIA

I can't really get the spacing right but the and U is right under the P and the via is a bit higher.


Any help would be amazing - thank you

3. Hairs on the back of my/your neck. Springs to mind, are these like the Dingbats that used to be in The Daily Mail? Mix of pictorial and word clues?

6. Wildfire (Oscar Wylde, bold letters spell fire)

7. Looks a bit like a suspension bridge if I've drawn it correctly, so something along lines of 'bridge across . . . '?

10. Up the road

Misslayed

7. Cross the bridge!
