Good morning, Jasdip!

Okay, I know it’s not right but #16 has put an Aretha Franklin earworm in my head. Auggh!

Good morning, all! I've wasted too much time this morning already, so have to focus on work, but I'll be back -- quick glance, some of these will take some work, and #4 made me giggle.

Have a fun day!

Eek! It looks like we have to put our “across the pond” thinking caps on again.

Yeah, what Roxsol said.

But it doesn't look too bad at first glance. I'll be back later to work on it.

Rusty

Whew! This is a toughie. I’ve only got about half of them. I’m still working on the rest.

Maybe tomorrow will be better.🤠

It is definitely a tough one. I thought I knew a good many British terms from the number of years I traveled there. Not much help at all.

If you took the tube, you should get a couple, I think.

(not the ”Friends” way) 😳

I agree, roxsol.

I have just over half of them and not likely to get anymore.

I’m still missing #8 and #11 and iffy on a couple of others.

Oh, I think I could have #11. 🤠

eta Okay, I’m feeling much better today with my guesses. ☘️

These are definitely tougher! Thanks, Jasdip, for giving me something to do during my crazy bouts with insomnia....between these and the doors/wheels question, I'm not sure I'd have time to sleep this week - lol!

Anyway, I'm still missing some. 6, 8 and 17 are totally escaping me. My guesses for 9 and 14 may be too US-centric for this puzzle, but I'm sticking with them (and 14 is giving me an earworm!). And my guesses for 16 and 18 followed my googling what those items were, so may or may not be right and my guess for 11 may be a little far fetched.

So, basically, the only ones I'm pretty sure of are 1 - 5, 7, 10, 12, 13 and 15.

***HINT ALERT****

Lettersatoz, my guess for #17 is a place where you have to turn right or left. I’m kind of iffy on it but it is the best I can do. ☹️

#6 I’m leaning toward the tube idea. #18 for sure.

No idea for 8.

eta Or for you letters #17 is where your ball begins at every golf hole.🙂

It's not quite as intimidating this morning as it was yesterday. So far I have nothing for 6, 9, 17 and 18. So I'm going to go bold and say I'm happy with all my guesses (except 2 and 14).

Rusty

I didn't look yesterday, and today I'm finding that yes, I need my deerstalker's cap for a thinking cap!

Oh yes bpath!

You might even meet a little bright-eyed doll…..🎶

Haven’t read hints, second look and I’ve not gained any on my first look, which is to say I’ve got about half. Will stare some more and come back later.

1. Archbishop

2. Car insurance

3. Eyes wide open

4. Frilly underwear

5. High tea

6. King's Cross

7. On the open road

8. See no evil

9. the price is right

10 Top gun

11 Wait for nobody

12 Wet behind the ears

13 Burn the candle at both ends

14 Down by the riverside

15 First in the queue

16 High society

17 T junction

18 Underground train station

That was a really tough one but super fun. I never did get #8 but managed to get the rest.

I was surprised about #11 as it seemed to be a bit of a stretch.

Thanks, Jasdip🤠

A little bit of music:

Never did come up with anything for 6, 9, 17 & 18, but got all the rest right! I surprised myself!

Rusty

The way the words were thrown about in #8 I thought it was ”Cast of Characters”

tj

Ooh, I like ”cast of characters”. I think that is clever.👍🏻

Oooh, happy to see my answers for 9 and 11 were right! For 14, I was thinking Down by the River (which is the first line of the song Dirty Water by the Standells…kind of an anthem around here [🎵Boston, you’re my home🎵]), but close enough!

Didn’t get 6, 8, 16 (had high charity for that one…duh!) or 17. Fun puzzle - thanks, Jasdip!

I didn't get some of them but can see where the answers come from (if that makes sense) but still would never have figured them out.

But #2 and #17 I don't see at all. A cup and saucer represents having tea so that makes it a T-intersection? Oh boy. But #2 - nope.

@blfenton - "BMW" is inside of 'surance'. = car (in) surance.

Really? BMW? - now maybe if it said Ford I might have figured it out. :) But BMW is way out of my financial league. :(
