Hey! Hey! Hey! I am the f-i-r-s-t yet again... tight teaser MAN!!
Two out of three is not too bad - It should have been 3 for 3 I must need caffeine
not sure how skin and flint go thogher but thats ok. (heard of skin flick)
Well, I got depressed when I did not get the anagrams thingy, but now I feel better ! Alls well with the world again ! Skinflint I think is a word to describe a miser, do correct me if I am wrong, and also I think its Australian slang.
if you are old enough to remember sharkskin pants, you would also remember the term skinflint, while eating a drumstick on the boardwalk in the humdrum of a lazy summer day
oops, i forgot my clipboard
Good one Fish! I now can not get humdrumstick out of my head as I keep saying it as one word.
I didn't get shark-skin-flint, but I got the rest good job
Neat teaser. I didn't get them but a I'm very tired right now so hopefully that's a good excuse. And yeah humdrumstick won't get out of my head either.
