16. Parker loved renovating the kitchen - or even the bathroom, what job did he like doing? (female singer)
17. Upsetting odour (late 70's band only known for one song.  I would say it is fairly well known/familiar but did not chart over here)
18. Lunchtime chat Amens (who is chatting at lunchtime and what does Amen signify?)
19. Louder horseshoe (there was only one hit in his own in the mid 70s for the multi-talented singer, songwriter, producer, musician.  The horseshoe is nothing to do with a horse in this instance)
