some horrors there, no wonder I could only get to 13 today

That was tough squares, but appreciate the effort. Thank you.

Thanks boys, enjoyed it. Normally only see these threads when they`re halfway through or nearly over, only the hard questions left, got lucky today, saw it early.

Cheers squares, I'm off to get that brain transplant, finally...lol!

Cheers, squares.

Sorry I missed this one today. One of the answers reminded me of a girl I knew whose father did a holiday house swap with another family in Barbados. Their next door neighbour popped in regularly for a chat but they didn't recognise him until he told them on the day they were going home. A really nice guy apparently. He was in the band answer to number 11. Without googling, can anyone name him?

Eddie Grant?

Does anyone have anything lined up for today?

I can do some song titles for mid afternoon or is everyone resting their brains today?

Eddie Grant?

Yep.

I saw this earlier squares, but it wouldn't allow me to log on and reply, otherwise I was up for another today and I'm sure others would have joined in. All being well, and I don't get the same issues tomorrow then yeah, go for it. I have a few things planned for the morning but mid-afternoon, if you're about, will be fine by me. Off to watch a film now so will check back in the morning for an update.

Saturday lunchtime / early afternoon maybe?

Morning squares; if I can log on later today I'll be there, circa 1pm possibly?

I'll give a bit of notice beforehand, but 1.00 ish will be the aim.
