if you do not use too much of something now you will have some left later when you need it

The bin answer is pretty oblique! Only one of the four words in the answer comes from the picture.

Just one left - the to-do list.

Edit: got it, all done. Back to my own to do list!

Thanks all.

Yep, paper one was rubbish, pun intended, but the rest were largely ok. A few were "don't do", while the image was do, but I can forgive that.

I'm playing this over the internet with some Americans, who spell everything differently and have different idioms. It's twice as entertaining this way.

The bin one got, even with clues required some Googling for inspiration. Pretty tenuous link to the image to be honest.

Argh!

Are the crisps related to the toast, or are they a clue on their own?

Help with the picnic basket?

Help with the plum?

Help with the city scape?

Is that my final 4???

Crisps and toast are one

City Scape, the city part is irrelevant, it's more generic.

The plum was pretty obvious, maybe you are a fool 🙂

Picnic basket is a specific shape.

Reckon you have one more too. Have you got both birds, two for the eggs and three for the apple and pills?

Well I finally got there, did need some help on the final few from here, more as I couldn't work out what were clues and what was just part of the picture. Spent way too long thinking of phrases related to lances, skiing and rams

No idea what the final one could be just yet...

Done...last one (I won't give it away) was sat on the coffee table looking really obvious, I just never paid it any attention.

I still haven't managed to work out the context for this one. It was one of my last few and I just plugged in bin related phrases and one hit, luckily pretty quickly. Its by far the worst "clue"

Me and the Mrs didn't give up and we now only need 5 more having just got the postcard one 🙂

and the damn spitting water deer head.

FFS, just say what it is
