Hey, good one! I got them all quite quickly, except number one - what has a hare got to do with "bug's" ?
I believe BugsBunny is a Hare..therefore the reference to "Bugs". Good one by the way.
Thanks so much .
The "voiceless galloper" was a bit more difficult to me, but as a whole, the teasers were quite fun. Thank you for the teasers, and keep up the good work!
Thanks Twinthing .

You would not believe it, but I once had an English teacher try to tell me that hoarse and horse were not homonyms!
My goodness. So did that affect you solving this?
